Weight challenged for the last several years - using food as a comfort to relieve the stress and anxiety of life's unexpected challenges. Starting to get a handle on things. First goal is 250 (starting at 329 - back in April, 2006). We shall see what happens from there. I'm 6 ft 5 inches after losing an inch to gravity over the past number of years.

Two grown children and seven grand children.

I am a native duck (complete with webbed feet -LOL!) - born in Oregon and now living in Vancouver (just outside Portland, Oregon). The beautiful green Pacific Northwest!

Best of luck to you (the reader of this) as you travel down life's wonderful road filled with surprises, challenges, happiness, joy, and, yes, the occasional sorrow. How could we ever enjoy the sweet it if were not for the bitter to give us a comparison?

Cheers and happiness to you in your journey!
