COMEBACK KID (ok, OLD LADY...:lol:)

I will succeed! My psychy needs to! We each get dealt challenges in life & I know controlling weight is difficult BUT... not as difficult as some issues others have to deal with! I am not complaining about my weight I just want to work harder at getting it in control! I am proud of what I have accomplished BUT.. I need to pay attention again! I only succeeded with my willpower, my support system @ home & my friends here @ FATSECRET! So I am ready! Let's do it!

January 10th, 2008
I am an interior designer living in Montana after being born & raised in San Francisco Bay Area. I have lived 55 years with most of them being a voluptuous woman. I have a son who recently got out of the Marines. A husband who is retired & now raising a few cattle & playing farmer, he loves it. I grew up being told "you have such a pretty face if you would only lose some weight". I finally have a mind set that I know I can let go of some of the past. Some things that I allowed to stifle me. I can now tell myself I can do it! I started watching what I was eating Thursday, Jan 10th. So far I have stuck to it. I am trying to choose a more structured diet to follow. I look forward to making some new friends that understand how difficult this is.

Getting to KNOW YOU, la la la laaa la laaa laaa
BRRRRRR A cold "hello" from Whitefish, Montana, proudly the USA. I love about 60 south of the Canadian border of Alberta. It is pretty darn cold here. Tonight it is about 16* & will get down to single digits. The horses have their blankets on. My name "pretty face" isn't because I am conceited... Laughing it is because as I grew up I was told I had such a pretty face if I only would lose some weight. I always felt so UGLY! Being almost 250 pounds I didn't think I would succeed. I want to be pretty on the inside first though! Wink

100% Whole Grain Wheat Thins!!
I found Mary's gone crackers @ Super one & Rosauer's grocery stores. They usually are in the organic section. Worth a try they are pretty good!

Has anyone tried "MARY'S gone CRACKER'S"? I don't eat alot of cracker but sometimes I have had the above brand. (NONE in 4 weeks, while on the no-carb challengeRolling Eyes ) They are wheat-free, gluten-free,they are made with organic short grain brown rice, quinoa, flax seed, sesame seeds soybeans. I appreciate any input!Wink Cool Wink

pedometers
HELP!!! I have seen a few pedometer's mentioned. Did I write them down??? NO!!! Please give me some input about which pedometer is good. Someone mentioned one from Wal-Mart that was ordered online. I appreciate your input! With winter starting & I get confined to inside I sure would like to get one of these! Ciao...Wink Cool
