    Hello. I'm Jaime, I'm going to be 35 yrs old in 2 weeks.

    I'm 5'7 and 219.6 pounds..

    I've been on BP meds for 1.5 yrs.

    My lowest weight in 1996 was 120 pounds.

    My highest weight was in 2005 at 250 pounds.

    I dropped 90 pounds in 9 months in 2005.

    I'm lazy. Somewhere between inspiration and actually doing it, eating right and working out, I get lost.

    I'm hoping by using MFP I can SEE what I am doing, be more accountable.

    :)

    Feel free to add me....I'm pretty active on MFP daily.

    I'll be 40 *gulp* tomorrow.....have 1 kid.
    Joined at the end of May, jumped off the MFP wagon, and then started back before thanksgiving.

    I used to be in great shape, but marriage, a job where I either sit at a desk or travel a lot, and a kid ruined my motivation.
    I'm here to lose weight, but more than that get healthy. Lower body fat, lower cholesterol, and lower blood pressure.

    I'm 5'5", started MFP at 192, and am looking to get down to about 135 or so.

    I love cooking, and have an open diary.

    Good luck!
