Mayflowerchick Madness!


I am 59 years old and live in Round Rock, Texas. When my father passed away in October, 2017 I moved in with my mom as her caregiver. I never had a weight problem when I was growing up, in fact I was tall and skinny. That changed when I went on disability in 1993 and I just wanted to eat to feel better. My weight ballooned to 270 lbs. After moving from Maryland to Texas, I joined TOPS in 1997. I very slowly lost some weight. In 2009 I decided that I needed to do something, and I joined ...
I am 59 years old and live in Round Rock, Texas. When my father passed away in October, 2017 I moved in with my mom as her caregiver. I never had a weight problem when I was growing up, in fact I was tall and skinny. That changed when I went on disability in 1993 and I just wanted to eat to feel better. My weight ballooned to 270 lbs. After moving from Maryland to Texas, I joined TOPS in 1997. I very slowly lost some weight. In 2009 I decided that I needed to do something, and I joined SparkPeople. So with the support of both TOPS and SP, I reached my goal in July, 2010. I became the 2010 TOPS Texas State Queen. That really got me out of my comfort zone! I love to write and have begun to love to travel when I can.

    Thanks for commenting on my blog. We rescued her abt 3 weeks ago, hubs found her nearly strangled with a chain, no collar around her neck. I took her to the vet the next day and she had hook and tape worms and was abt 11 lbs under weight for her size. I hope they take better care of her. I got her ears healed up from the fly bites and the gnash in her neck healed as well. All I know is she has already gained a few lbs, is much stronger (will assume from all of the playing and walk/runs she and I have done) and is happy, or was. I hope she keeps her wonderful sweet personality and I hope she doesn't have to sleep in the cold tonight. It is suppose to frost. :(
