About Me

Holy cow ~ I will be 40 at the end of this year .  March 12 will make my fifth anniversary of becoming a non smoker.  It's a great thing, i know.. but it also marks the 5th year of  this miserable 30lb weight gain.  I have dieted, used weight watchers. and I like to work out ~ problem is I tend to give up after the scale doesn't move as fast as I think that it should.   I set myself up for failure.

As of today... The 17 day diet book is ordered and on it's way.  I have already lost 4lbs and my currant weight is 165.   My goal weight is 140. 

I have promised myself that I will get a  healthy and happy start to my 40th year.  which means I only have 11 months to go.   140 by 40 I can do this!!!!

good luck - it's been easy for me but it's because I made that decision and have stuck to it. I know that since you've made that decision you'll find it easy, fun, enjoyable and challenging.  good luck and I will look forward to following your progress.
