44 and the time is now...

Yesterday my husband and I spent a kid free day to celebrate our anniversary. We went to a nearby amusement park, one I hadn't been to in years and I had the wake up call I've been needing for a long time. I was/am officially one of "those people" who could barely fit in the seats of the rides. I could have let it ruin my day, but instead I chose to let it be my wake up call and the motivation I needed to get my *kitten* back on track.

I'm a very lucky woman. I have a fantastic husband who I am still in love with and who has always loved me no matter what I size I've been and trust me - I've been a number of them. I have two great kids who are 6 and 4. I want to see them grow up, graduate, get married and have kids. I can't do that if I don't start taking better care of myself.

The time is NOW...who is with me on this journey???

    Happy anniversary! Good for you to look at the amusement park rides as a wake up call rather than a downer. And you asked, "who is with me on this journey???" Here at MFP there are some who are trying to gain muscle weight, but the vast majority are WITH YOU. Spend some time in the community forums checking out the success stories and the motivaiton threads. And I'm sending you a friend request. Feel free to message me with any questions. I've been here just shy of a month, but have learned so much already and am willing to share.
