Introduction Text I have found myself searching many diets and many programs and nothing seemed to fit what I wanted to accomplish. I am at a time in my life where it is finally my turn to do things over, and do them right. I am a big fan of support and encouragement from others in the same situation, so I will be cheerleader for any and all who need the motivation! This isn't easy and I don't want to have surgery because I KNOW I can do this without that kind of intervention--and, it doesn't always work and I do know this from friends and loved ones who had the surgery. I am finally taking the first step to get it done! *****It is now several years yet again, now 2011, and I am trying to get back on track once again. Do I get points because I keep trying? I hope so. Maybe my situation will change to help me reach my goals....here is to a new year and a new me..... I disappeared for awhile because I let life get in the way of what I had wanted to do here. I found my way home and now I am going to remind myself everyday to be here and get moving.

Goals: 1. drink more water 2. walk every day 3. journal my feelings, behaviors, and results 4. Remember the bathing suit!!! 5. To not look 39, but rather look healthy!!!

I have just started, so this will be updated as I figure it all out. I love to walk and have a home gym and lots of stairs to the upstairs here, so this is all going to help me put it all together bit by bit. For starters, I am not allowing myself to sleep in every morning and forcing myself to rise and greet the day! I was a stay home mom for awhile but after my 3rd child, I realized I needed to get back to work for my sanity. I now have 4 and love working, enjoy my time home again but definitely miss the adult conversation and intellectual stimulation.

My name is Marie, and I am a native of Chicopee, MA and I was born in Worcester, MA. I lived in TN in 2006 and loved it, and hope to move back there someday.....I feel so at home in the south. If anyone wants to make pen pals, or want to vent on a frustrating food weakness day, or want encouragement for their efforts, feel free to write me here at Sparkmail and let me know you read about me here. I'm a great listener and never judgemental. Good luck to everyone here!

I am a crime novel buff, along with movies of all kinds, enjoying being a mom of 4 at 39 and love cooking and gardening--gardening is a great exercise because of all the bending, squatting, and work you do...you can also find me at the playground with the kids because it is a great way to get them out and running as well. Also enjoyed are biking, walking, swimming, hiking, camping, and almost anything that is family fun!
