    • About Me

      I am 55 years old... Married for 30 years come this May..I have 2 grown children, and 5 grand children, and one on the way.. I am terribly over weight.. I've struggled with it most of my life, then just gave up and let myself gain lots of weight.. I now have health issues, and need to exercise and lose weight.. I have severe arthritis in my lower back, and a degenerated disc.. So I am in constant pain .. I don't even know what to do anymore .. I guess I could use a good friend .. UPDATE: I am volunteering for an Animal shelter, and enjoying giving Dogs a 2nd chance at being loved by a family.. Very rewarding for me .. I also take care of my 92 year old Mom who has significant Dementia ..

      From WalkingThroughLife Friday

      Hi Jean!
      Could I borrow your rider mower to get my leaves up? They just keep coming... : )
      Re the animals: so what you were doing before was to organize the foster care of the animals? I wonder..... I wonder whether you could start a new program; I don't know what it would involve, but if you could locate a few farms that might take a few animals...?
      Just a thought!
      It's incredibly beautiful, warm and sunny here today. Too bad that I have lots of indoor work to do. But I'll get out there as much as I can. I need to store up some of this sunshine for the winter months!

    • Close Diets & Weight Maintenance

      I have recently moved to a town where I know noone..I moved to take care of my 15 month old grandson, so my daughter and SIL work. I do miss very much having a girlfriend to talk to. I was adopted at birth, and at the age of 50 found my birth family. I've dealt with alot of issues concerning being adopted for years, and come to know now at the age of 54 I was the luckiest girl in the world.

      Treatments

      I did lose 50 lbs on this diet, but made me very constipated
      Counting Calories Working / Worked

    • Close Obesity

      I am 54 years old.. 100+ lbs overweight.. I recently got a life coach, MistieZ, who has helped me find my self worth.. With her help I have learned to find the GOOD in me.. Before her, I felt like I wasn't good enough in anything I did.. Now I know I am.. That is step 1 in wt loss.. I am still working on my self esteem with her.. Food is not an issue anymore.. I don't GORGE myself anymore.. I don't HATE myself anymore.. I have a long way to go, but am on the right road now ..

    • Open Adoption

      I was adopted at birth.. I was told I was adopted at the age of 10 by a little g/f..I was devestated for years.. Even ran with the wrong crowd.. Was just angry for most of my life b/c I was lied to about it .. I am now 54 years old, and about 4 years ago, I found my birth mom and siblings.. Nice to look like someone.. Although I don't have love for these people, its nice to know where and why ..
