It's rainy and cloudy and 40 degrees colder here today than it was yesterday morning. It was raining when my friend and I were supposed to walk, so we sat and enjoyed a cup of coffee together, talked about different low fat recipes, and by the time we had finished, it had stopped raining, and we were able to go take our 30 minute walk....
, I feel so much better now.
About me, I'm a 54 yr old mother, grandmother, wife, and daughter...lol. My mother lives with me, has been here for about 5 years now. She has dementia, and is getting pretty difficult to take care of. But, we get through one day at a time, and are making it so far. My husband helps out with her too, when he can. I have a wonderful son and daughter in law, and two beautiful grandchildren, a boy 4 1/2, and a girl who is 19 mo's. I drive a school bus, have been doing that since my son was in the first grade. That was 21 years ago, wow, I just figured that up....lol. When I turned 49, I started a new career as a REALTOR. My husband and I own a real estate company, he is my broker, which is another challenge...lol.
My weight is like a yo-yo. I am up and down, I went through the change early, at 42, I'm not on any hormone therapy, so my metabolism is crawling. Time for a change.
Thank you all for your welcomes, and I look forward to coming here everyday for motivation and support.
Isabella, congrat's on your upcoming journey as a grandparent, there is no emotion that compares.
Meowee, glad u made it through the day resisting the foods you wanted to, and wish I could knit. I learned how to crochet, but was never really good at it. At age 12 I learned to sew, and made my own clothes until it got cheaper to buy them than to make them. I would love to start back doing some sewing, but want to lose this weight first.
Bobbi, good luck with cleaning out your pantry, gosh you ladies may just motivate me to clean out mine too. It surely needs to be done.
Everyone have a good day!
