Weigh what's really important: Self Respect! The number on the scale is not self-defining.

It is important to me to keep my weight in check without losing perspective or my sense of self. )O( ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Beauty comes in all shapes and sizes. Love yourself today, not only once you reach your goal weight. Eat healthy and exercise because you LOVE your body, not because you hate it. *big hugs to you*

My Goals:
A lot has changed in the three years I've been on Spark People. At first, my goal was to maintain my healthy lifestyle. For reasons explained below, my current goals are these: I would like to be able to carry laundry without getting winded (80% to goal). I would like to be physically able to help my Mom (80% to goal). I would ~love~ to be able to re-attempt to learn to sail (DONE!! :D )!
My Program:
I generally lead a healthy lifestyle: vegan, whole foods, exercise, lots of water, etc. My weight, body fat percentage, BMI, cholesterol levels, blood pressure, etc. have always been within the healthy range. However, since my surgery, it has been a much harder job keeping my weight in check. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Current Exercise Program: I am working in as much exercise as my doctors will allow, and experimenting to find the balance between too much and too little. Current Eating Program: Continuing with vegan whole foods. Eating 6 mini-meals a day. (Kind of like a Hobbit! :) )
Personal Information:
Over a year ago, I had surgery for endometriosis (they removed a bowling ball of endo, several organs, and hysterectomy). Because of my extended hospital stay (due to complications) and lengthy recovery, I am working on adding activity back into my life slowly and safely. However, housework needs to be done, my Mom is moving and ill, etc. It's been a rough road, but I am determined to regain my health and stamina, and I feel that SparkPeople is a great place to do it! :)
Other Information:
You *are* beautiful just the way you are. Right now, not just after the weight loss. Yes, I mean *you*, the person reading my homepage right now! :)
