I've been there and I'm going to get back there. I was very happy with my weight and size for a couple of years. A cascade of issues led to my weight shooting back up, perhaps to a lifetime high. Despite the meds, the arthritis in my knees, and some other continuing issues, I'm determined.

Fitness Minutes:

My Goals:
I have a family history of type 2 diabetes and heart disease. I hope that by eating healthy, being active, and losing weight I can avoid both.
My Program:
I started with the Weight Watchers Core plan. Now I am concentrating on just eating a healthy balanced diet and eating clean (closest to how foods occur in nature), though I'm not aiming for 100%.
Personal Information:
I'm single and I live in Fredericksburg, VA.
Other Information:
I lost about 80 lbs between 2007 and 2009, but I slowly started to inch back up. Early in 2010 I lost my job, and as I continued to be unemployed, the weight gain accelerated a little the first year and a lot the second year. I'm back to tracking and I'm headed in a better direction.
