I'm baaaaack... in theory. :# Had a wonderful baby a little over a year ago. ("Yeeeeah" for the baby... "Booooo" for the extra pounds and diabetes!) Still not motivated... but I have decided that I'm just going to have to start this journey without it. Its not just about losing weight now... my health depends on it. I work full time. Have three children, three dogs, and a husband that I take great care of. I've got to MAKE myself start taking care of me. First day of gym and attempting to eat more healthy is TODAY. Yep. Today.

    Good Luck to you! And 110% you have to take care of yourself first to be that great Mom, Wife & zookeeper! Take time at the gym...I joined the YMCA when my son was 6 months old. I have never stopped..My weight fluxs up and down but the fitness helps me feel healthy & sane! Start slow & reward your self once a week..Set goals. YOU CAN be HEALTHY & you will BE!!
