My Journey


I'm a 41 year old chunkamunk. I've struggled with my weight since I had my daughter. She is 22 years old now, and I'm at my largest. I suffer with a myriad of health problems due to my weight. Diabetes, PCOS, Thyroid problems, anxiety and depression, high cholesterol, sleep apnea, high blood pressure, and acid reflux. Food is killing me.


You better stand tall when they're calling you out.
Don't bend, don't break, baby, don't back down. - Bon jovi

    emoticon
    Welcome to the most friendly, most supportive team in SparkPeople land!! - Please feel free to jump in and join in the message boards. It has been proved that people who contribute to message boards and blog regularly lose more weight, more easily than those who don’t, so come on in.
    It is a great place to be and you will find lots of friends, ideas and links to help and support you at all stages on your journey.
    We have started a web site to give extra information about Chair Exercise – at www.chairexerciseisforyou.net – and the team picture is linked to our YouTube Channel where we are collecting videos of Chair Exercise. These are to help you so please use them often.
    I hope you succeed in all the goals you set.
    Enjoy the journey

    Thanks for adding me Melissa! If there is anything I can help you with plz don't hesitate to ask! I been here under a different screen name since 05 or 06 so I know the ropes so to say lol!
    The great thing I found about spark is that there is a lot of us here! And you never have to be shy to ask anything bcuz 9 times outta 10 someones going thru it, or already went thru it!
    TOGETHER we can do this!! I have a team of my own if your interested in it. It's a positive place to talk and there are some great ppl there, it's small...there is only 11 member including me. If your interested here's the link
    www.sparkpeople.com/myspark/groups_i
    ndividual.asp?gid=53254 you might have to copy and past it in your brouser.

    or you can click the team name on my page, it's called "No more EXCUSES or REASONS we're just gonna DO IT! "
    Have a great night!

    Melissa ~
    I seen you post on one of the teams we're on together and had to come say HI!!
    We are the same age and about the same weight. Together we're gonna do this! I too am usually the biggest person in the room....and for YEARS have always tried to just fade away and into the crowd...but it's literally impossible with my size...I'm not only 363 pounds I'm also 6 foot! So fading wasn't an option. That kinda brought me outta me shell so to say ;)
    Hope you don't mind that I made you a spark friend on here!!

    Have a wonderful Sunday!!
