Where do I start....

I reached my highest weight ever in May of 2003 of 246 lbs. (I might have been higher but I never weighed myself so I can not be sure.) I started to lose weight just because I saw a picture of myself with my nephew. I had roll after roll and I did not know where or how I got them. That was it for me.

I have done a few diets in the last 10 years ... Atkins ... Curves ... Atkins (again) ... Weight Watchers (on my own) and Weight Watchers with meetings. I was aember of Weight Watchers since September 2007 and I even got to Lifetime status. Then everything went to hell in a handbasket

I gave birth to my little dd in November of 2012 and to my ds in April 2016. I need to get healthy and in shape for them. I am having back problems due to the weight I am. I don't every want to tell my kids that I can't play with them because it will hurt too much.

I vow to get into shape and be a healther me for my kids and my husband in 2017!

As for goals....

* I would love to be in the 100s on the day that I return to work from maternity leave.

* I would love for all my girlfriends to be jealous of me instead of it being the other way around.

So this is me ... almost 40 years old and happy with my life but not my weight.

Here are my mini goals for 2017:

Hitting 200 lbs:
Hitting 180 lbs:
Hitting 160 lbs:
Hitting 140 lbs:
Hitting personal goal of 135 lbs (even for a day):
Running a 5km race:
Running a 2nd 5km race and beating original time:
