MORE ABOUT ME: I am a wife and a mom to 2 boys. I unfortunately struggle w/my weight..and I hate it. I have to firmly stick w/what is right or I pay for it. I am not one that can eat whatever I want...I wish. It's going to be a long bumpy road. I am trying to just take it 1 day at a time. Some days are better of course. I just have to remember to not give up. If I want the rainbow then I've gotta put up w/the rain=].

I AM FROM: Tulsa

WEIGHT LOSS/OTHER PROGRAM I AM ON (if any): Diabetes management plan & Weight Watchers

ORIGINAL WEIGHT OR HOW MUCH YOU HAVE LOST SO FAR: During '06-'07 I lost 60 lbs. because of being scared by my diabetes diagnosis; in '08 I stalemated and fought 20 of those lbs. off & on all year. Since joining Weight Watchers 7 weeks ago, I have lost 19 lbs.

HEALTH GOALS: To keep off diabetes meds, to stave off having to have my mitral valve replaced as long as possible, & to be able to do what I want to and go where I want to because I am HEALTHY and ACTIVE enough to do so.

NURSING MOM? 17 years ago!

IDEA FOR BLOG NAME: I am so not good at names!MORE ABOUT ME: I am a single mom of one teenage son; have been single for 11 years and enjoy it for the most part, but it is tough. I have gotten back into my Christianity in the past 3 years and have been extremely blessed for returning home to my Father. I have a job I love, and many friends that I have known since I was a youngster. I used to be thin (weren't we all?) until I reached my mid-20's, then I filled out somewhat but was not really "fat" until after I had my son. Depression over my marriage contributed a great deal to my overeating - not an excuse, but by all means a contributor to my becoming an "emotional eater."
