I'm a 43 year old with a lovely home, three great kids, and a wonderful husband. I have spent a number of years ensuring everyone else was taken care of, and now I need to do something for me. I was thin in high school and my first year of college, where I met my husband. I gained weight through college (the Freshman 15 plus a few), three kids, and now I'm at the point where I'm so unhappy and sick with myself. But I really want to feel good again. This is a big step for me....putting myself out there...becoming 'visible'. This won't be an easy road, but I'm hoping by being reasonable and forgiving myself that I'll make it to my goal. I will practice patience, good choices and most importantly LEARN what works and what doesn't so this becomes a life journey and not just a side trip.
