I'm a working single mom of twin boys with Autism about to turn 10yrs old! When they were diagnosed 5yrs ago, I had just lost 35lbs with South Beach and exercising for the first time in, well...forever!

Our lives have started settling down a bit, allowing me to put more focus back on ME! My employer also added the benefit of fee reimbursement at the gym close by so I really had no more excuses. :-)

I'm a working single mom of twin boys with Autism about to turn 10yrs old! When they were diagnosed 5yrs ago, I had just lost 35lbs with South Beach and exercising for the first time in, well...forever!

Our lives have started settling down a bit, allowing me to put more focus back on ME! My employer also added the benefit of fee reimbursement at the gym close by so I really had no more excuses. :-)

I began working out 3-4x/wk in Sept '09 and added clean eating (natural foods -- good carbs & good fats, no processed foods or chemicals, etc.) in Mar '10. In May '10, I signed up for my first ever gym class. Zumba. I LOVE IT! Never for a moment do I feel like I'm working out. We just move and have fun!

My hopes are for reaching my weight loss goal by Summer '11 and continuing to eat clean the rest of my life to help maintain and stay healthy for the sake of my boys who will always need me.

I do still enjoy a free night each week with my girlfriends so that I don't feel like I'm dieting, but working towards a new me! ;-)
