More ...

I am the mother of 2 boys, 13 and 15 1/2. I am married to their father (for 19 1/2 years), who has been the love of my life for the past 21 years! They are very supportive in my weightloss journey. I run an inhome daycare, currently I have 4 little ones, 2 girls and 2 boys. I love to read, dance, and listen to music. I was always thin until I had my boys. I just couldn't manage to lose my pregnancy weight and then kept gaining. I started following weightwatchers a few years ago in which I lost about 45 pounds. After some health issues, and some stressful situations that have gone on in the past few years, I've regained about 25 pounds. I have gotten bored with my workouts and have needed some support outside of my family so I hope to find that here.

My Progress

My fitness goal: Lose Weight

Transformation story

August 2011 UPDATE: I've had some struggles with finding time to fit it all in and dealing with stress in my life over the past few years and I'm an emotional eater... so I regained some weight. I'm struggling with losing those extra pounds. I'm NOT GIVING UP!! I will lose these last 16 pounds and reach my goal!!

MARCH 2008 UPDATE: I've regained about 12 pounds and am currently trying to take it back off. I will not give up even though it's taking me soooo long to do this. I am determined to get back to goal weight!!

JULY 2007 UPDATE: I am slacked off a bit with my workouts and my eating so I'm currently working on losing the weight I had gained back ... but will get back down to my goal weight of 110.0 very soon!! I now know that this is possible and I'm not going to let it get me down. I'm working really hard to take it back off!! I'm so very pleased at how toned I'm getting with Turbo Jam!! This is such a great program and I've found such a great support system through the threads and message boards!!! I'm looking forward to reaching my goal weight again real soon!!
