I'm 43 yrs old woman and I am ready to start my journey, I'm new here today and need some friends to help me start it! In the last 10 years I have gradually added on 50+ lbs. It is time for this change and I'm very much ready. Three weeks ago I dusted off my old treadmill, bought a heart rate monitor and have already lost 6 lbs.

I have two teenage boys 16 and 17. They eat like there is no tomorrow, I'm constantly cooking for them. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE TO COOK. I like to think we eat fairly good, but I do know there is plenty of room for improvement.

With my oldest son's upcoming High School Graduation in June 2014, this has sparked this journey into reality for me. I'm excited and ready to do this!!!

    Welcome and I have sent you a friend request...I am 44 myself so I know how difficult the struggle is once we get older. Just remember it is a journey and has to be looked at as a life style change to maintain the loss...No more diets...just healthy living :)
