Didn't start having a weight problem until my late 30's. After having three kids, then starting to work nights I just seemed to pack it on. I would get determined to lose the weight, then lose the weight, then eventually gain it back plus some. After doing this several times over the years my weight ballooned up to 224 (over 100 lb gain from before this all started). I am hoping this time I can overcome this for good. I know I use food as a soother and so I find fatsecret a big help in keeping track of my daily food consumption. It is so easy for me to overeat without even being fully aware of it.

I am looking forward to a healthier, happier, more active future. There's still so many things out there in this world that I want to experience. Life is good and I aim to enjoy every day.
