Hi there.

I was recommended this site by a co-worker. I've previously lost 65 lbs through Weight Watchers but I left the program after becoming disillusioned with their underlying corporatism. After leaving I've put 20 back on so I'm kicking my own butt into gear. Before I gave in and went back to WW I thought I'd give this place a try.

For activity I love to dance, and I walk and I do Kick-boxing twice a week. My instructor, bless her, is a bit sadistic but she's a lot of fun ;-)

I'm also reconciling my desire to be healthier (and get into my pants again) with my feminism and the desire to not buy into the monolithic beauty standards that say we all have to be a 6 to be beautiful. I'll probably be blogging a lot here, while I sort all this out, mainly to keep from cluttering my regular blog (http://andiegoddessofpickles.blogspot.com)

Pleased to meet you all!

    And please, forgive me for the silly thread title. I couldn't think of anything else.

    Thanks, yeah I have been.. I'm pretty sure that the activity is what has kept me from putting more weight back on.
