Hi Everyone,
I just joined 3fatchicks tonight and would like to introduce myself and hopefully meet some nice Christian people in here that need to loose weight and love our Lord.
I'm going to be 60 years old tomorrow. I can't believe that, but that's what the calendar says. I sure don't feel like it! My hubby and I retired 2 1/2 years ago and moved to the Tampa area from northwest Illinois. We love the warm, sunny weather and have been enjoying our life here. We've joined a great church and made so many new friends. Enjoyed everything toooooo much in fact! I had lost over 80 pounds just before moving down here. We took 1 month of traveling and visiting family and friends before coming down here. Then, our house wasn't finished so we lived with very dear friends in a condo on the beach in Siesta Key, FL. I know...it was a tough life, but someone had to do it! Well, let's just say the weight began creeping on and then more walking on, and finally just raced on it seems. I now need to loose over 40 pounds to get me back to my goal weight of 170. I'm 5'7", large boned and weigh 209. I went to a Weight Loss Doctor March 31st weighing in at 213. I had lost 4 or 5 pounds before going to her. She started me on a 1200 calorie diet and gave me Phenterine Diet pills. I am down to 209 now but seems to me the weight is coming off slowly for what I'm eating. I've also been walking on the treadmill about 3 times a week for 30 minutes.
That's about all there is to say. Hope to encourage and be encouraged. Thanks for reading!
