Well it is another New Year and I am still overweight!!! I always start off strong then totally screw it up and start eating horribly. This time I am going to try and write down how I am feeling and what is going on to see if this will help!
I am 47 years old I have two children 21 and 17. One in college and one a senior in high school. I am very involved in Girl Scouts and have a troop of 21 girls ages 6-18.
I need to lose weight not only for health reasons but I love the outdoors! Camping Hiking kayaking and at my weight I an finding it hard to do the things I love
6 years ago I quit smoking and I have gained 56 pounds since then. I was never thin but I was in shape and could do what I wanted to do even if I did smoke. Now I am 251.5 pounds (CRAZY!!!!!) and have a hard time tying my shoes!!!
So as of yesterday I started My Fitness Pal. logging my food and water. I am going to take my measurements and put them up here.
So here we go again!! Maybe this time I will be the success I know I can be!!

I was a Girl Scout Leader ever since my daughter was in 3rd grade. My kids are all grown.
I'm 59 now and have lost 95 pounds.
