42 years old today and first goal is to lose 42lbs...

Odd. This morning I weighed myself and I was like...."sigh...I want to lose 42 lbs...."......then I went upstairs and it hit me...I AM 42 today.....I want to lose 42lbs as my first goal....sounds like today should be the day I start! SO, here I go!


Mother of 2.......19 year old and 9 year old boys. Married to a wonderful wonderful guy who is.......uggg. I can't even say how much I love this man. He is amazing. Just amazing.

Husband ordered a Total Gym and just set it up in the basement the other day. He has started on it and is feeling the "strain"....so, tonight I am going to start as well.

I have a very cushy desk job. I do not have to get up for anything...well, I guess my printer is about 5 feet from my chair...but that is all I really have to move most days. To the printer and back.......maybe.........oh....5 times a day. When I get home, I really don't do anything but cook supper and sit and watch a little tv before bed. My youngest and I decided last night that we are going to start doing exercises before bed each night. Tuesdays are an exception, tho. Guitar practice gets in the way. But, the other days there shouldn't be a problem!!

Here we go!>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
