I am a 55 year old female who has always been overweight but active. Until about 4 years ago my weight did not interfear with my activities. In the last four years I have had rotator cuff surgery, knee replacement and foot reconstruction surgery. Now I feel the effects of the weight and need to "Get it Off".
We love to camp and I love sports. I also like to read, crochet and cook. I work as an administrator for a non-profit agency that has programs for at-risk youth. I have been married to the same wonderful man for 31 years and we have three great children (19,23,&25 years old).
I am updating my bio and starting new. I haven't been using FS in the past 9 months. Serveral things have happened. A couple of life changing events, plus gaining 24 pounds back and being diagnosed with diabetes! I can no longer do weightwatchers (to confusing while counting carb exchanges). I have my diabetes under control, A1C is 5.9, but I have not lost a pound in the past 3 months (actually gained 4). My doctor told me that I am to hard on myself and need to relax and as the Nike saying goes "just do it" so I am going to take his advice.
First Goal 10% weight loss.
