Just posting an intro

  • Hola,

    Just wanted to take the chance to say hello.

    I've been putting off coming back here after a short lived stint a year or so ago, but today I accidentally stumbled across the website of a woman who had had the gastric bypass surgery by medical recommendation and saw that her "before" measurements were frighteningly close to my current ones! What a reality check.

    So, here I am. I have been exercising almost daily for about a month now, out of necessity; the car broke down and I hate staying home so I'm hoping if nothing else the walking and biking are helping my heart. I'm a single parent and need to stay healthy for my child.

    I'm a Vegetarian and have an allergy to wheat gluten but have a horrible time avoiding bread. When I am able to avoid it I see immediate weight drops so I am going to try desperately to stop craving breads...High weight 223.

    Here are the current stats: 43-46-47, 213.
    Here are the current goals: 34-30-34, 140.
  • Hello Elizabeth2. Why is it that what we can't have is what we always want the most. It's such a mental thing. Anyway keep up the biking and walking and check in with us often. God Bless.
