My name is Gina. I turned 46 on August 21st. I am originally from Hays, Kansas and currently live in the Dallas-Fort Worth, TX area with my wonderful husband of 4 1/2 years (he was definitely worth the wait!). We moved to the DFW area 3 1/2 years ago (July 2007) from the Edmond/OKC area. I also lived in Nashville for several years and I miss living in "Music City." I have a 19 year

My name is Gina. I turned 46 on August 21st. I am originally from Hays, Kansas and currently live in the Dallas-Fort Worth, TX area with my wonderful husband of 4 1/2 years (he was definitely worth the wait!). We moved to the DFW area 3 1/2 years ago (July 2007) from the Edmond/OKC area. I also lived in Nashville for several years and I miss living in "Music City." I have a 19 year old son who is a college student at the University of Central Oklahoma in Edmond, OK. My hubby has two grown sons. The oldest and his wife have a beautiful 3 1/2 year old son and they live in Los Angeles. The youngest son and his wife live in the Kansas City area. Together my husband and I have "our three sons." I am a HUGE college football fan. First love = Oklahoma Sooners (Boomer Sooner); second love = Arkansas Razorbacks (Woo Pig Sooie)!

Since my wedding in March 2006 I have put on approximately 25 pounds, have lost lots of tone and have become "soft," especially in my middle/stomach section. I used to work in outside sales which kept me very busy, moving and in decent shape. I was laid off in February 2008 and have been working from home since that time. I have an eBay store, started a new business in May 2010 and am a full time college student (all online classes). I spend A LOT of time in front of my computer and not enough time moving ~ not a good combination!

My mother passed away 14 years ago due to complications from diabetes and congestive heart failure. She was only 59. She had health issues all of her life (heart murmur when she was a teenager) and these issues were compounded by her weight. I am currently 25 pounds overweight and do not want to let my weight creep any higher. I have seen first hand what diabetes and other weight related issues can do to a human body.

I will start P90X lean tomorrow (10/4/10). I am so ready for a change! I'm tired of being out of shape and exhausted all of the time. Not only do I need to get my body back in shape but I need to learn to eat healthy/clean and break the bad habits I have acquired in the past few years ~ especially Diet Coke (currently my breakfast of champions!). NOTE: beer and wings from Buffalo Wild Wings will quickly add unwanted weight!! ;-)
