I worked hard to lose 23-25 pounds in 2008. Unfortunately, I kept getting sick since 2009 started which affected my breathing and ability to exercise. Not adjusting my eating in accordance (still have to instil that principle in my brain), I have gained 9 pounds.

So, I am back on track-determined to lose those pounds! My breathing is now back to normal and I have started running again and have returned to my obsession-Zumba.

I am working hard to change my thinking about my weight and body image in this process...starting with my ticker- I would never have published my weight in the past, but this is a new day and a new way of thinking!
