I'm 34 yrs old...at least for 1 more month....I just married my bf, of almost 5 yrs whom I purchased a house with 3 yrs ago, in May 2006.

I have pretty much always been around 140 lbs and a size 10 and satisfied with that until I found myself at 134 and a size 8 when Michael ( my husband) and I got together. Yes, those 6 pounds made a huge difference! I hurt my back in the spring of 2002 and couldn't work out for 2 months. I also had a really, really bad reaction to some of the meds I was put on and was in horrible pain in all of my joints! I was out of work for 2 weeks and was tested for a million different things. I knew it was the Meds and after about the 3rd Dr I saw ( horrible time for my Dr to take a leave of absence), he agreed it was the Meds and put me on Steriods for a week which alas healed me!!! Anyways, since then I've pretty much been battling myself to get down to 140. So, far the lowest I've gone is 146, but that doesn't last too long. Since doing WW point plan, I've been seeing changes on the scale, after staying at 152 for 7 weeks!! I usually sit around 149-150, because I've yet to be consistent with my workouts and eating!

Michael was awarded custody of his 13 yr old daughter and she's been living with us since January 2006. I have different priorities in my life right now, which is why I feel that I'm not always consistent.

I think I'd like to feel fit, healthy, and look good in a pair of jeans!! So, I'd be happy with 145...I know I need to work out at least 5 times a week and I'm having trouble accomplishing that.

So, I pretty much journal about weight, eating and working out or the lack of and everything else in my life.

I live in MA and absolutely love spring/summer and the beach! I love the smell of the salt air, the sound of the waves, the way the sun glistens off the water and how the salt water feels on my skin!! I have eczema and the ocean is awesome for it! My brother has a boat and my dream is to own one ourselves!!

I grew up the youngest of 5 kids, 2 sisters and 2 brothers. We grew up having a cottage to go to, down towards the Cape (but not actually CapeCod) every summer. My parents separated when I was 22 yrs old and the cottage went too! My sister and I miss it immensley, so every summer we rent a cottage in the same area every summer! One of my brothers has a house down there right across from the ocean.

My family is very close, although one brother lives in Ohio..he's in the FBI. My sister who is a year older then me, is my best friend. My other sister is 10 yrs older than me, and I'm close with her too, but not as inseperable as me and the other one. We bought a house in the town we did, because I wanted to be close to her!!

So, thats me and a lot more!
