Hi. My name is Sandy and though I have been a part of this site for over a month, I'm new to all of this. I joined after my best friend sent me the link. Problem is that I joined off of my smart phone and it doesn't give me all the perks to joining on line. Recently I went to the website on my laptop and saw just how awesome this website is! Anywho...I'm 36, a single mom of two and life has definitely been a rollercoaster for over 20 years. I fell into a depression at 15 after my mom died and I started raising a 2 y/o brother. Food became my best friend, or so I thought. I've continuously played the wow is me card for all these years and I'm sick of it. I'm finally going to be an adult about life and all it has to offer. This is part of my change. I plan on getting in shape and healthy for me and my boys. I'm looking for a job, new friends...a new life period. I plan on keeping my head up and moving forward. I hope you all do too. I wish you all luck with your paths.
