I'm 48 years old, married, vegetarian female. I have 4 cats but love all animals. I work with kids with special needs in a middle school. This is my second career. Before this, I worked 23 years in IT. I like what I'm doing now much better. I wear a pedometer every day to inspire me to keep moving. I like reading, playing scrabble and walking. Happy to be here!

Oh, forgot to mention. My high weight was 256. I lost about 50 pounds a few years ago, then maintained (plus or minus 5 pounds). This past year, the weight crept up to about 216 so I knew I had to get serious again - not only to lose what I regained, but to continue on down. My ultimate goal is set at 165. I'll see when I get there if I need to lose more.
