Well, Hello!

My story thus far... I was very active in my youth, played sports, was concerned about my weight in the way most silly high school girls are, but was actually pretty slim, just curvy. As the time old tale goes, I gained weight in college. Still not horrible, just a little more plump. I had been in retail all of my working years...the kind that keeps you running around all day.

Well, Hello!

My story thus far... I was very active in my youth, played sports, was concerned about my weight in the way most silly high school girls are, but was actually pretty slim, just curvy. As the time old tale goes, I gained weight in college. Still not horrible, just a little more plump. I had been in retail all of my working years...the kind that keeps you running around all day. I bounced around from 120-140 for several years until I took my most recent position as a customer service rep at a healthcare facility. I sit at a desk pretty much all day. I packed on the pounds and at my heaviest was 180. The day I was closer to 200 than 100 was my breaking point. I've used other programs, but have not had as much success or support as I have found on Spark.

I'm interested in all sorts of movies, books, art, travel, blah, blah, blah.
I went to school for fashion merchandising/design. I want to get back into that line of work. I need something more creative than what I'm doing currently. Also, something that does not keep me dealing directly with public. I've just about had my fill, haha. I live in a rural area, so changing jobs, let alone trying to start a career, is a challenge.

Glad you stopped by and I hope we can encourage each other on this crazy ride!

Dude... we have the same problem. I just said I had to stop buying books, then I bought three more on the weekend!! I love the series. Thirteen books sounds like alot, but they're VERY quick reads.

Thank you for that comment. Not being able to really exercise is getting hard.

Boyfriend is having knee issues, too. I showed him Jillian's knee-circles, and he said it helps, but didn't fix. Knees... ugh. I hope you find something that works for you!

I enjoy house chores. I do not enjoy my mom taking extreme advantage of me being home and making me do their housework when I have my own plans (said the child who is "mooching" off her parents for three weeks. But still.). Sigh. Less than a week, and I'll be back in my house.

Interviews... went well? I felt good about them. I have yet to hear back, but I should hear back within the next week or so. One is a possible round 2, the other is a possible round 3.

If those fall through, I'm back at square one, and I have no idea what to do. Ugh.

I get so mad at myself when it comes to dieting. I know what works, I've proven it! But as soon as someone says "Hey Try This!" I'm there! LOL.

I'm glad you liked my photos. Sometimes it doesn't even feel real. But of course I just look in the mirror and being a woman I still see myself as being huge! Silly Girl! But obviously I feel better about myself considering I'm half nude in my pictures.

Oh Sigh! We'll get there!

I'm glad I could make you smile!
