My Daily Struggles & Triumphs

My wish is to paticipate in my own life and be there for my family. I'm looking for people with similar goals and hope to be an inspiration for someone else.

I am a Lifetime Member of Weight Watchers and was very successful for 4 years but time has a way of catching up with you and so did the weight I thought I lost. It found me again.
I am an animal lover and over the last 23 years have owned 8 cats. I'm also a Pitbull lover and one day I will own one.

 I choose healthier options and eat alot of vegetables. I eat my fruit, not drink them. Water, water, water. Low fat is a must and I add healthy oils to my salad dressings. I do not belong to the clean plate club anymore. I have a problem with exercise and really need a push when it comes to working out.

Hi again, I just read your post on my page. I had a cat named Chelsea for 12 yrs. She was about 14. She suddenly started acting sick last March, so we took her to the vet. It turned out she was very sick and died three days later. It was so sad. I wish we had known that something was wrong earlier, but she wasn't showing any signs. I really miss her. I have another cat named Lilly. She is about 11 years old.
The same thing happened with me, with my weight. I was 160 in high school, went to college and actually lost 30lbs. I stayed in the 130's for most of my college years, but gained back to 160 during my third year. I got pregnant and by the time my son was born I was 210. Ugh! I lost some after he was born, but I slowly gained more over the years. Four years ago I hit 260 and was diagnosed with diabetes. The doctor put me on Metformin and I worked on losing weight. I lost 48lbs in four months and was doing so well that he took me off the Metformin becaue my blood sugar was completely normal. This was a bad thing, because I slowly started regaining that weight. By December of 2012 I had gotten back up to 248 and decided that I was not going to hit 250 again, so I made a New Years resolution to get healthy. I started working on eating healthy foods and some weight started coming off. Then in late January I found SP and a lot of things started to click for me. In March I was diagnosed with Fatty Liver Disease and Reactive Airway Disease. Then in April I found out that I have Polycystic Ovary Syndrome and Sleep Apnea. I was told losing weight would help all of these conditions, but the PCOS makes losing weight really hard. Being on Metformin makes it much easier. I am hoping they will put me back on it.
I think mentally changing my goal to getting healthier, rather than losing weight has made a big difference for me, because before if I didn't lose weight every week, I felt like a failure and eventually threw in the towel. Thinking about getting healthier instead of just weight loss made things much easier because I knew that even if there wasn't weight loss for a while, I was still improving my overall health with the choices that I was making.
emoticon Hopefully we will both continue to make progress on our goals
