Time to Get Serious!
Hi, I'm Linda and live in Central North Carolina on my daughter's small horse farm where I help around the house and in caring for my computer-geek grandson. I was recently diagnosed as insulin resistant. (So that's why I can't lose weight!) I prefer not to identify as prediabetic since that seems to indicate that I can't change the course of my life. I'm here to start taking better care of myself and become accountable. I'm already doing a good amount of exercise, so that's a start.

My Goals:
Well, for right now I just want to get healthier and back into the jeans and such I "outgrew" a while back. And also, of course, to stave off the specter of diabetes which seems to be looming.
My Program:
I've been active at a gym with a pool for over a year now and am doing mostly water aerobics and yoga. I would get out and walk, but it's so ridiculously hot here! I'm still settling on the right dietary changes to make and am leaning toward low(er) carb, since I seem to feel better with that.
Personal Information:
These days I hail from NC, but I was born in Philly and lived all over eastern PA, Vermont and Northern VA. I had serious health problems which caused me to lose a great deal of weight, all of which is back now.
Other Information:
I love to read mysteries and have become a rabid trivia buff. I'm an event organizer for one of my Meetup groups and enjoy arranging outings for this group, from which I've made many close friends.
