Hi
I am back after 4 years when I first visited this place and lacked the motivation to really lose weight.
I am 42 and I am married to a military man for 18 years. He is literally my earth angel and I am so fortunate that he is home safe.
However I know all to well about deployment stress he was gone over 65% of our marriage until we changed bases. That's right 1PCS in 20 years hard to believe huh?
I went through early menopause at the age of 35 (right about when my former corporate life slowed down) and we were thinking about kids.
Until recently I was one of the girls that could carry extra weight and people would say oh your not fat! Well 35 pounds later and I am fat! Even though my DH loves a little junk in the trunk (wink) I have finally reached the point where enough is enough!
I had my first mammogram today boy was that fun! I felt so fat and self conscious.
On top of all of this I have been self employed for 10 years (can we say eat while waiting for the contracts to be signed)
I am now starting a company with 4 other partners and OMG accountability in business is new to me
I mean clients are easy compared to a board and investors! Yikes
Any ways I am a very spiritual person and I love to read , and (oh yes work)
If you think we could be good buddies please contact me ..... this is what I am doing
belly dancing
stress relief exercises through out the day (one of those big balls love them)
cross trainer at least 30 minutes a day
and my old army exercises (some recovering the last leg of a frozen shoulder)
hmmmm and drinking lots of water and yes cutting back on alcohol. I love wine and all the rest in moderation most of the time (just being honest)
Well I hope to hear from someone
OH YES VERY IMPORTANT I do much better via the phone or skype than typing I am an audio driven person (hope you understand that)
