I am a 51 year old woman. I raised three kids. I married 3 men. OK 4. But the first one was still married!!! I have lived in Mexico, Scotland and the USA. I am an artist, a head-hunter, a book worm, a dog-lover , a gardener, and a Reiki practitioner. I am also fat. I struggle with my wieght every day and have every day of my life. I would like to change that for the next half of my life so I am trying to lose weight without dieting, the way I know dieting which means not eating something for a period of time and then yoyo-ing again even if its not immediately but always eventually.

I know I need to change but I have to do it with thought and choice or else I will have to do this AGAIN and AGAIN and something tells me the next 50 will not be so easy. So, I think that this time I will make changes that I can stick with.
