Hi all! My name is Cindy and I live in southeast VA near the beach. I am a 52 year old mom and mimi, happily married, and graduating December 16th with an AAS in Health Information Technology. So I figured if I am starting a new career late, it's not too late to start over with a new body as well.
I am 5' tall so every ounce looks like 5 pounds on me. I am clinically obese, weighing in at 193! I was low carbing and losing, hit a plateau and got discouraged. That made me eat (any thing makes me eat) so I gained 20 pounds - 12 I had just lost with 8 extra to boot.
Right now, I am waiting for my exercise DVD's to come in. I have downloaded MFP, joined an awesome work out board, and now doing some yoga to loosen up my tight muscles.
Hope all of you reach your goals and I look forward to networking with you during this change for the better.
