Hi All,

I am a 43 year old Mom, artist, and family pet herder. I have 70 pounds to loose and my goal is to chop it off 2#'s at a time. I would love to have some peeps on this site to help get through this. I am a lover of good wine ( need to cut that to 2-3 glasses a week), former chef, and I travel a insane amount.


Please feel free to add me.

    I sent you a request. I also am a wine lover.. I try and have just one glass a day, because my grandma always tells me that one glass of red wine a day is good for you! :)

    If on I would stop at one glass. I think it's best I keep it to one day a week for the wine until I can do better!!!

    Oh wine, I can relate to you there!
    I usually do 1 glass a week though, and I do it on the weekends to celebrate surviving another week. ROFL :laugh:

    OMG the WINE!!! I work with wine, so it's really hard to avoid. However, this Monday I started my new habit! No wine during the week! Weekends are ok, in moderation. I did this once before and found that I am a terrible lightweight when I don't drink during the week, so it's not so hard to have just a little on the weekends! I need to lose a bunch of weight...I don't really know what my goal is, but at this point it's to get below 200, so that is 28 pounds. I'm sending a friend request, we can do this, like you said 2 pounds at a timE!

    I made it all week! Sweet! We had a trip to the city and to see a band, so we kinda kicked up our heels a bit.I danced a whole lot at the show, so I figure I burned off the wine!
