Introduction Text I'm Jen. I live in Houston, TX and am the mother to two amazing children. I have a daughter that is 18 and a son that is 6. I've been with my husband since my senior year of high school. It's been work, but I love my family! I am NOT accepting failure as an option this time. I will make this the last time I go through this process. I can't wait to meet Skinny Jen! I see all of the people on here that have reached their goals and I know that if they can do it, so can I. I am DONE beating myself up. I am DONE wearing ugly clothes. I am DONE hiding from the camera. I am DONE being lazy. I am DONE living with pain. I am DONE causing my daughter to have unhealthy habits because she copies what I'm doing. I am DONE pretending it is OK that my family ignores me because I'm "different" (i.e. FAT). I am DONE letting other people treat me like I'm less of a person. I am DONE making making choices that are not good for ME. I am DONE accepting a mediocre life. I am DONE binging when stressed. I am DONE watching other people have fun...it is my turn. I am DONE paying a premium for UGLY clothes. I am DONE watching my cute clothes hang in my closet. I am DONE mistreating my body. I am DONE just accepting. I am DONE being the fat girl!!!!! "There's a difference between interest and commitment. When you're interested in doing something, you do it only when it's convenient. When you're committed to something, you accept no excuses; only results." Kenneth Blanchard

To put it simply, I want to lose weight. To add depth, I want to be healthy. I want to do things with my children and not be tired. I want to succeed! I want to start walking 5k's beginning in March and ramp up to running by the end of the year. ULTIMATE Goals: WDW 1/2 Marathon WDW Princess 1/2 Marathon and eventually, the WDW Marathon. Running through all 4 parks would be a dream. Bike in the MS150.

Eat approx. 1500 calories a day. Lots of lean protein. I need to increase my fiber. I will hit the gym 6 days a week. I love the gym and all things working out. Water! I'm shooting for 12 cups of water a day. Thank goodness for the gym! That helps a lot!

I work full time and hope to start school as well. I think I've finally decided FOR SURE what I want to be when I grow up (a teacher).

I love Disney, scrapbooking (I converted my dining room to a scrap room/office), reading, watching TV, movies and games (video, board, PC, whatever). TV: I'm definitely a Gleek! Other shows I like include Big Bang Theory, New Girl, Dexter, Criminal Minds, The Office, Gossip Girl, Intervention.
