Ok, on Sunday morning, I went to the kick-off meeting for our new weight-loss contest. I did this last Summer also, but hope to do ALOT better this time, because I am determined to kick butt this time (probably my own mostly).
This years contest ...
Profile Information
- About Me:
- Before I became a mother of 7 and grandma of 4, I was sorta shaped like "Olive Oyl"...but thanks to stress, depression, and an ex-husband who was addicted to junk food & just life in general...I went from Olive Oyl to Bluto.
Before having kids I had a 22 inch waist, now my waist is about 38 (or at least thats what my work pants say)and I have a bigger flat tire around my middle then any car. I gained over 70 pounds during my first pregnancy and my weight has yo-yo'd for many years since then but for the last 15 years or so I can't get it below the 150's, in fact I think 155 has been my lowest weight ever in last 15 yrs.....(which is about 15 pounds lower then what it is right now)

Food rules & My motto
I have been trying to lose the habit of calling any certain food "good or bad", but sometimes I still ask myself "how will I feel after eating this" I know that if I eat certain foods now that later on I will feel bloated, have a stomache, have the runs and seem to live in the bathroom for a week straight and in some cases (mainly from to much sodium)~makes my lips feel numb & swollen
My motto is it should be tasty, healthy, and most of all quick & easy to prepare. When I open some raw… Continue
