I will turn 50 this year. I am going over the 215 mark on the scale. I decided to do something about my eating habits when a size 2X was getting too small. I refuse to buy a 3X, which would mean that I accept my size. I got this big from bad eating habits. For a long time I blamed my weight on steroids (take because of asthma)but I know that its also my love of sweets that has added this weight. I don't excersize because of the asthma, but I keep busy doing things around the house. Lots of housework, gardening,painting rooms,and things like that.
