Loosin It… Again

I have always struggled with my weight, as a young child I was “chubby.”  As an adult, I have almost always been “heavy.”  Ten years ago I lost nearly 50lbs without dieting or consciously exercising.  I just eliminated fast food, sugar, and cut back on alcohol.  I kept it off for 3 years, for the first time in my life I felt good about my body and how I looked.  Then I got married and pregnant.  Oh… no….  I used my preganancy as an excuse to eat whatever I wanted whenever I wanted without feeling the guilt normally associated with food.  I gained..65 pounds.  Since then, 7 years, my weight has been hovering around 165 to 200.  After several failed attempts at the South Beach Diet, I am now trying to eat sensibly and exercise deliberately and use the WW flex program.  Exercise and diet, coupled with a more “patient” attitude, I hope to get down to my goal weight of 140.

This time, I don’t care how long it takes, as long as I am successful!
