I started here in June of 2007; by May 2008 I had lost 52 pounds! Then life sidetracked me and I find myself over a year later having gained back 40 pounds. I've spent too much time trying to get over the fact that I back-slid. And too much time taking care of everything else but me! It is way to easy to get caught up in what "has to be done" and not do what is really important. Now it's time to Get Serious!! It's time to Get Back on Track!! It's time to remember that taking care of me is the most important thing!!

My goal is to feel healthy and more energetic. I'm determined to eat better and less, exercise more and be more positive!

I am eating healthy foods and keeping within Spark People's guidelines. I do aerobics everyday, as well as strength training with my computerized trainer 3 or 4 times a week. I have an elliptical trainer and I'm working myself into using it. I'm utilizing the principles in "The Beck DIET Solution". Read "Younger Next Year for Women" by Chris Crowley and Henry Lodge Restarted on June 18, 2007 and lost 52 lbs by May 2, 2008. Then lost focus and gained 50 lbs. back by August 1, 2011. Starting Again!!

I am 54 years old; married for almost 30 years; have a 30-year old newly wed son, who lives nearby, and an 25-year old daughter, who is attending Grad School at Boston University.

I like to spend time with my husband at baseball games, movies, shopping or hanging out at home. We have a new house that I've been slowly working on decorating. I'm head of the Children's Christian Education Dept. at my church and enjoy the challenges that brings.
