Oh, my husband thinks I look great. When someone told him make me stop losing weight, he instantly inform her, that he would not that I was happy with the new me, so that I was fine. He is just overweight and has no desire to improve himself. My daughter and I work at this together, often he does not like our meal plan. She has a lot more to lose. (you can see her picture on my spark page) I would love to get him eating healthier and take off some weight. Deana

Thank you Deana ... I love your name btw ... :) I wanted to congratulate you! Looks like you are moving right along! :) I actually started out a couple of months ago, at 347 . Now, I am starting here, at 290 ... :) I want one of those little measuring tapes the girls are using on their messages that shows where you start and where your goal is .. :) So, you don't have support at home? I guess that is one good thing about living alone ... you don't have anyone holding you back or down or ???? :) Everything has it's pros and cons ... :)

I will definitely have to keep sending you messages then to help you remember. It is easy and almost addictive once you get going, I can't go to bed at night without entering my food and checking on the SP friends. My husband teases me about my "chat" as he calls it. If only he would be onboard.
See ya later. Deana

This is a really cool place! Love the tools. Also, this sounds like a really friendly group. I am 63 years young, LOL I live in Central Michigan and love everything Nautical! :) I have 3 kids I gave birth to and a 4th one I raised who is my GrdD. I have 3 Grandaughters. I am divorced and sometimes I am okay with that and other times I am not. I wish sometimes I had a companion and if the opportunity arises, I don't know that I won't check it out, lol But right now, I am working on "me"! :) The last 3/4 of my life was lived mostly for my kids ... now, this 1/4 is for me ... :) I wqant to be happy and satisfied with the way I look and feel, which, isn't the case currentl. I am beginning to feel better, as I have already lost over 50 pounds, but have 3 times that much to go! I am going to take it slow and easy and not stress myself out. I don't drink coffee, but, I will come equiped with my Diet Pepsi or Coke, LOL
