I am mom of a young toddler. Somewhere between the time I stopped nursing and the stress of looking for a job, I ballooned up to 167. The only other time in my life I weighed that much was when I was 7 months pregnant. Now, my goal is to weigh about 140. I don't like what I see in the mirror because I see someone without energy, someone with a shorter life expectancy, someone who is not taking care of herself. And that bothers me. I like feeling strong and healthy. I want my body to be going strong for a long time, so I need to reign in my eating, bump up the exercise and give it the attention it deserves.
