I am a Realtor and the unpredicability of my schedule coupled with loads of time in front of my computer have assisted me with picking up the pounds. I stopped exercising due to my percived lack of time and I have to retrain myself to make it part of my life. My diet has also suffered tremendously. To many snacks and a SERIOUS lack of meal planning are adding to my waist line. I am 41 years old and happy and successful in my career. My goal is for body image to match my current professional accomplishments. I went and listened to Dr. Phil last night and he said that you present what you feel you deserve. Meaning that if you see an unkept over weight person that person feels that is what they deserve. As women we take excellent care of our children, we make sure they are in sports and are well rounded. What about us? We are the only Mother they will ever have. We should take better care of ourselves so we can stick around as long as possible to share in their lives. I am going to do it! I am back on my LIST!
