Im 39 years old and was married a couple of years ago to a man who has proven to be more supportive than I would have ever imagined. He thinks Im beautiful and seemed surprised when I said I really needed to lose some weight. I need to go borrow a scale to get my first weigh in but Im guessing 330ish. My first goal is to lose enough so I can use my own scale instead of borrowing my Moms, then Id like to reach ONEderland by chipping away at it 25 pounds at a time. Id love to buy a new outfit and feel good in it by my anniversary in June. My husband deserves that. But my biggest reason for losing weight is because a little over a year ago I was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis and Im trying to get something positive from it. Its definately been a wakeup call that life is short and I best not waste it. I think with accepting a loss of control of some things to do with my health, its motivating me more to do something with what I can control which is what I choose to put in my body in the way of food. I know diet is not a cure but I also know that providing my body with the healthiest fuel possible will be a huge help and having less weight to pack around will more than likely leave me some energy to do the things that are important to me.
