Here is a picture of me and my daughters Shelby and Jasmin. While they don't hide me completely, they hide quite a bit.

I am a 47 year old mom of 2 daughters, both grown, and I have 3 grandchildren. I work full time in an office and part time as a school bus driver. Neither of these is what I want to be when I grow up but until I decide, they pay the bills (barely) plus I don't have to leave town and could walk to work if I wanted.
I have several health issues that have started recently and although they are medically controlled, losing weight will enhance that aspect along with every other in my life.
The support of others so far on this site has been amazing and I feel ready to get on with it.

Amryk Fan Club!!!!
What song will you choose, and couldn't you get the falsetto voice by being naked in a crowd? I think a fan club for you sounds great. Perhaps Tiger Beat will call you.

Low carb and hair loss??
I have the same problem and thought maybe it was because I haven't taken my vitamins like I should have. I worry about it too.

50 LB WEIGHT LOSS CHALLENGE - WELCOME
Before I leave I had to plug in my numbers. I lost 2.5 pounds this week. I even exercised at the pool and I have the sunburn to go with it. At least I will have a little color to show for my vacation. I don't have many stairs around here but maybe at the motel.

50 LB WEIGHT LOSS CHALLENGE - WELCOME
The gain I have been expecting was today. Surprisingly I am not suicidal about it. I will get back on track without excuses and hopefully I will get it off by next week. I started out pretty good with the sit-ups (crunches) but kind of forgot about it after the first couple of days so this week I will do better. I have been walking to work for a few days (truck broke down). It looks like everyone has done really well even those that took vacations. Mine is next week and I am determined to lose.

50 LB WEIGHT LOSS CHALLENGE - WELCOME
I LOST A POUND! It was mostly due to prayer as I did nothing to earn it. But it has motivated me to start doing better. I have now lost 20 POUNDS - 17 pounds for this challenge. I may not beat KazinVegas but I do want to be just like her when I grow up, what an inspiration.
I will have to get over the trauma of the waist measurement before I can consider whether to post it. The sit-up challenge is great, I did one. Definitely room for improvement there.
