Hello all!
Once upon a time I had a job that kept me on my feet for 8-10 hours a day. I walked to and from my job and I was never without anything to do. However, I made a career switch when my spouse was diagnosed with cancer. I began to work from home as a freelance writer and, more recently, and author.
It is amazing what going from a fast paced job to a sedentary one will do for your weight.
I went from a fairly comfortable size 8 to a size 14-16 in about three years. When I went to the doctor and finally saw a hard number for just how much my body had changed I decided to make a difference.
Problem. I have absolutely no work out or weight loss buddies in real life. I'm hoping to make some here.
