I choose health

edited September 19 in Introduce Yourself
This is my first time on a fitness blog. I'm 54 and weigh 197. I'm sedentary. I'm starting SlimShots at the same time as starting this endeavor. I went to Hilton Head Health institute for a week and lost fifteen pounds over the following three months. But then I became human again, broke my shoulder, consoled myself with icecream. Yada yada yada.

We all have the same stories.

My son recommened this site. I've used logging software before and this seems to be very good because I'm not loading in the information...my choices are usually already available. So that should be a better incentive.

Best wishes to everyone!

Oh yes, the picture. I was Medusa in a play a few years ago. And it was the only picture I had of myself on this computer. Usually my hair is a little less....active!

    Thanks for the comments. I'll keep that in mind.

    There is no magic bullet. I'm hoping this website will help me jumpstart a behavioral change and the Slim Shots will provide a temporary ability to get the appetite monkey off my back.

    I am ready to get in shape. I am a 36 year old mom of three boys and I can't feel like this any longer! diabetes and other scary health problems run in my family and I DO NOT want any more problems than I already have. I am so ready to loose, loose ,loose !
