Exercise can be my friend, supposedly. We'll try that!

Seriously...?


I'm 52. I have diabetes. We are in the middle of the Covid-19 pandemic. I'm an essential service so I've been working full time throughout. It looks like things haven't even got as bad they will get yet. The only thing I can try to control is my weight. So here I am. Back at it with SparkPeople. Wish me luck.

Member Since: 1/21/2011

Fitness Minutes: 4,046

My Goals:
I would like to get down to 154 lbs. This puts me in the "normal range" instead of the "obese" range.

My Program:
 I am back to counting calories on SparkPeople.com because I've let myself get out of control. My portion sizes and snacking are my major problems.


Personal Information:
I've been married for over 21 years and am a proud mom of two girls, age 18 and 16. I'm not a huge fan of exercise, and I love food. Unfortunately! I do find that when I am busy, I don't eat as much until I sit down in the evening. Then I continually snack to make up for the calories I didn't eat all day.

Other Information:
 I love shopping, scrapbooking and cardmaking. I also enjoy geocaching!

    Just cruising through leaving ya with some motivational thoughts for today:

    “Do not fear mistakes, there are none.” ~ Miles Davis

    “I have accepted fear as a part of life, specifically the fear of change, the fear of the unknown. I have gone ahead despite the pounding in the heart that says: Turn back, turn back; you’ll die if you venture too far.” ~ Erica Jong

    “We must walk consciously only part way toward our goal & then leap in the dark to our success.” ~ Henry David Thoreau

    Have a healthy week!!!!
