I'm Karen - I'm 50 years old married mother of 4 (ages 27, 24, 6, 5). I've been on here a couple of times in the last year with pretty good success but I keep start/stopping. This time is for real though - my first grandchild will be here in March and I want to feel healthy and energetic when she gets here! I'm starting off with a bang with a colonoscopy Wednesday, so I figured it's the perfect time to start eating healthy after cleansing my system. I need to lose around 100 pounds, but I'd be happy with half that I think. I'm seeing a weight loss surgeon right now about the lap-band procedure, but I don't really want to go that route. Since I have to complete a 3 month "recorded" diet (as required by my insurance) before I have any type of weight loss sugery, I decided this is the place to have true success. If anyone wants to be my friend here - please feel free to add me. I've also reached out to some of the people who've posted on the intro page. I need all the help I can get - and I promise to give support to anyone on my friends list! CHEERS everyone and GOOD LUCK!!! Karen
