New to all of this

:happy: "I don't want to fail, cause this is the first time in my entire life that I've actually cared about what I do for myself and that I'm actually putting in 100% of my life into myself, that has never been the case; friendships, relationships, careers, I've always put other people first!"

I have been a caretaker my entire life! I lost one of the most important people in my life, my Grandad in 2006 and he was a whopping 94 years young, and then lost my precious Mother to CANCER in 2010, she had just turned 65! I cared for both my Grandad and Mother all the while being a Wife, Mother, Daughter, Sister, Employee, oh and I can't forget "Chief Cook and Bottle Washer". I have two sons that are 20 & 16 and an amazing husband that has been my life for 22 years. It is time I regain my identity and start living my life to the fullest and it starts with getting my health back on track.
To be continued...

Never done this blog/message board thing, so this is all new to me. Just been reading others stuff and it seems a lot of us are Proud-full Caretakers. Have been working with a Life Coach for a year now, greatness is just around the corner for me. Starting out at my highest weight of 285 lbs. no more, this is the end...

Starting a new job on Wednesday! Yeh! One happy gal is on her way.
