Hi, my name is Toni and I live in Norman, Oklahoma. I am originally from Phoenix, Arizona and have lived all over this wonderful country of ours!
I started gaining weight the end of 1999. My Mom had Alzheimers and I had just moved from San Diego to Orlando. I was depressed to be so far away and unalble to help with my Mom. On top of that I was in a highly disfunctional marriage. I also have Lupus which I have had to go on steriods for several times over the years. The last time I was on steroids I gained 20 pounds in two weeks!
I am determined to get healthy. I am not on any specific diet, I am just changing my eating habits to be healthy and proportional.
I am a terrible speller and I know that, so I am sorry in advance for any spelling errors!
I have two boys Joe, 22 and Ben 19. I have a wonderful husband now that is the love of my life. We have only been married for 3 years, but have known each other for over 30. (ARGH I AM OLD!!)
We are planning our delayed honeymoon to Hawaii for this spring, so that is my goal....not to be "obese" by then!
Join me on my weightloss journey!
God Bless!

Well, it is 4 years later and I am here AGAIN...still trying to lose weight. This time I report to my dr. every month. I am on a 1500 calorie diet. I go to bed hungry and wake up earlier each morning because I am starving. Pretty soon I will have breakfast at midnight! UGH! Maybe I should just be fat and happy.0
