Positive Changes

Hi, I am new here too and already love this program. My story starts with a doctor...

I went in last week because I was struggling to breath- most likely the humidity, but I do have asthma so I thought I should get it checked out just in case as I am leaving for vacation in a week.

Long story short- she said there was nothing wrong with me- I was just fat. I had just gotten off work (graveyard shift- unhealthy #1) from an 11 hour shift having only 4-6 hours of sleep, (#2) and was distraught because a, not because I was in denial (I make cracks about my size all the time #3) but because I just paid someone $25 bucks to tell me that- I could have heard that all for free at work.

I was angry- but not so angry that I said anything, because how could I argue with what I knew was true. She also said that if I didn't change something, I wouldn't make it to 65- like her that just got back from walking across England... not that I needed a bio... but still it hurt. I left with my head between my shoulders and my tail tucked.

I have 4 amazing kids 13, 11, 9, and 3... yeah- 3!!! Long story shorter- I got a journal and started calorie counting and that is how I found you all.

Everyone is amazing and I am really excited to be here with you all and for me to be successful, I am going to hang with this new group of cool kids.
