Introduction Text Hi! I'm a 43 year old with two children. My husband and I have been married 21 years. He and I have two sons ages 14 and 21. We live in the mid-west on a farm. Our oldest is attending college three hours away. I would like to be able to not wear plus sized clothes and not be winded when walking on family vacations. In addition to feeling better and looking better I need to exercise to not be depressed. My starting goal is to lose 30 pounds. I’ve done that before. Then I’ll go from there. — I will lose one pound per week so I don’t get frustrated and quit. — I will make a realistic goal of walking ten minutes each day to begin with and work up from there. — I will stay within calorie limit and drink my water each day. —And finally I will log in every day. These things are doable.

In order to do this I am going to: --Log in to Sparkpeople and read goals. -- do body boss 3 times per week -- stop drinking pop (or at least keep it to 1 a day for now) -- I will drink 8 glasses of water a day. --watch my portions --get more protein --if I have a break at work find exercise room.

READ MY GOALS EVERY DAY !!!!! Exercise cardio 10 minutes every day (to start with) by walking, exercise videos, etc. At least 2 days a week I plan to lift dumbells. At least 3 days a week I will walk or do an exercise video. I will drink 8 glasses of water every day. I will track my food on sparkpeople 1 time per day after I write it down on paper. Make my goals more detailed and obtainable-- Complete with rewards such as , new exercise clothes/smaller clothes, ;), shoes, work out videos, just for fun movies, nights out on the town, massages, etc.

I need to do this because I have a history of heart disease in my biological family and to stave off depression.

I enjoy music and art. I play the piano. I try to get in reading when I get a chance.
