FAMILY INFO (anything you care to share about your family, children, hubby, etc.): I live in a modest townhome with my boyfriend and our 4 yr old (almost 5) daughter Amber. We are both students pursuing our degrees, work FT, and of course being a parent is a 24/7 job. We recently joined Bally's as a family and are trying to get healthy and loose weight. Also "Santa" recently bought Amber a puppy for X-mas, so we are busy training the new "baby brother", lol.
HOBBIES/INTERESTS: I enjoy spending time with my daughter. I love swimming, and although I am not an outdoorsy person, I love to be in the fresh air enjoying the beautiful weather here, when its not 109 degrees. I enjoy gardening, and actually do pretty well until the heat comes in.
PETS: 1 Beta Fish (Betty the Beta) and 1 13wk old Chihuahua puppy, Mr. Apple Jimmy-Shoo (don't ask)
ATKINS START DATE:I will be restarting tomorrow.
WHAT MADE YOU CHOOSE ATKINS: Used it before,it worked.
TOP WEIGHT:252
CURRENT WEIGHT: 248
GOAL WEIGHT: 150
HEIGHT: 5'1
EYE COLOR:Naturally Brown (although I wear colored contacts)
HAIR COLOR: Today it's chocolate brown.
OCCUPATION: Credit counselor
GEOGRAPHIC LOCATION: SW
WHAT IS YOUR BIGGEST PROBLEM IN WEIGHT LOSS: I love ice cream and chips
WHAT IS DIFFERENT THIS TIME THAT WILL MAKE YOU SUCCESSFUL:
I don't want to be unhealthy anymore, I realized that my health is the one thing I can somewhat control. If I am fat, and unhealthy, that cuts years off of my life with my precious daughter, if I loose the weight and remain healthy then it would make me feel a little better. I just don't want to be known as Amber's Fat Mommy, and I don't want to keel over and die because I had a heart attack or something.
ANYTHING ELSE YOU WOULD LIKE PEOPLE TO KNOW ABOUT YOU?
I am fun person, I am kind caring, and love to make people smile. I work hard, and try to maintain an equal balance in all the areas of my life.
WHAT EXPERIENCES CAN YOU SHARE:
Whatta ya wanna know?
