I am a very determined woman! When I put my mind to it, and see worth in what I am doing, nothing can stop me. However, when it comes to me, and my body, I have been just coasting. There are many reasons why I got here with the weight, but none of them good reasons. I have allowed a lifetime of negativity to hold me hostage! Why?? I have no idea! I have managed to triumph is so many areas of my life, what hold does this weak, lazy body have on me that keeps me so crippled? I know better. It doesn't have to hold me hostage!! I can be free!!! So, I begin. One step at a time. Just like an baby taking those first steps. Just like a child learning to write his or her name for the first time. It won't be perfect; it won't be pretty. But it will be one step in the right direction. But just like that baby taking his/her first step, I will need all the encouragement I can get!!

I want to be healthy enough that my decisions/choices are never based on my weight.

Starting small--recording what I eat--trying to make smarter choices and advoid mindless eating.

I am 56 and have been married to a wonderful man for 34+ years. We have 2 adult sons. I work as a contract hearing reporter and I belong to Jesus.
