55 years old and would like to obtain better health, look and feel better. Past weight loss attempts have failed, but I'm sticking to it this time. My first goal is to lose 30 pounds, once that goal is reached, I will set another goal .... baby steps.

My Goals:
Lose 30 pounds and some inches. My goal is to be healthier for myself and for my family.

My Program:
 I have begun exercising 3 or 4 times a week at the gym. Drinking 8 glasses of water per day and staying conscious of what I am eating.


Personal Information:
I am from Niagara Falls, 50-something, mother of 3 wonderful children (27, 22, 19), and grandma to one beautiful little girl. Grew up as one of those skinny kids who could eat anything, and have blossomed into THIS!

Other Information:
 Believing is Achieving!

You are more than what the mirror dictates and more than what your medical record thinks you are. Be the change that you want to see in the world.(Mahatma Ghandi)

Slow progress ...
Short-term goal is to lose 5 pounds by 10/1/07 -
I DID IT!!!
Next goal - 155 by Thanksgiving.

Spend 5 minutes in each room of my house per day.

    Hi and thanks for the welcome. I just exercise and try to eat very healthy. I stay at the bottom of my range and say no a lot. I love chocolate so I keep dark chocolate like dove hearts in my fridge. I only eat one at a time and that really helps, also skinny cow ice cream and my favorite fudgesicles!. I eat a ton of fruit and veggies.

    Hi Jean,
    Thanks for the comments - I sure have been doing this slow, just not as steady as I should - but I'll get there! :)

    Hi Jean. Thank you so much for stopping by my page and for the kind words of encouragement. I have never gotten past day 5 of a diet before Sparkpeople, so I know how it feels to fail. The things that worked for me was being on sparkpeople everyday and logging food, water, exercise...everything! I even logged everytime I ate 5 reeces pieces, because sometimes you don't realize how much that adds up. Be totally honest! Also, use sparkpeople for support! If I was not doing well, I would start a thread and you would not believe the support! It got me through every time! Pray for strength! Remember that this is not a DIET, but a lifestyle change. Keep in touch and let me know how youre doing. I will do anything I can to help! Tori
