Good Evening All,
I just wanted to say hi and introduce myself.
I am a 46 year old lady originally from CA with pit stops in SC, TN, FL, TN, VA, DE and then back to TN where we are currently living. My husband works for a crazy company with wierd hours so I spend a lot of time alone.
I decided to sign up for 3 Fat Chicks thanks to a fellow member and after seeing a picture of myself on horseback. I already knew that I was not exactly the most skinny person on the planet but that picture sealed the deal.
I have joined a ladies work out facility where I will start exercising after permission from my doctor is given. I have a problem with an old ankle injury and a recent trip to the ER due to kidney stones. So hopefully by the end of August, 2010, I will be cleared to start that.
I also need to learn how to "eat right". That is probably what will be the hardest part for me. I am an emotional, bored and insert any other word eater. There has been quite a few reasons to be stressed over the last two years (although my weight was on before that) and my constant friend has been food.
I am considering doing a low carb diet and drinking plenty of water. A friend told me that putting one tablespoon of vinegar in my room temp water in the morning should help start me on the path to all good things. I will see if I can stomach that one.
Anyways, that is me in a nutshell. I can't wait to see where this journey takes me. We are planning on going to Disney World in November of this year and then a cruise in November of 2011. I would love to be at my goal weight by the cruise.
Lisa Marie
