I'll join again. I'm Becky, just turned 46 at the end of December. I've been married for 24 years and have 3 great kids. The oldest 2 are living away from home at college most of the year, so we've had adjustments over the past couple of years with that. I've been on and off these threads since the middle of February last year. When I joined, I was at my heaviest, although I've been overweight for years and it just kept creeping up a little each year until enough is enough. The first 4 months I lost 30 pounds exactly and then I went on a 2 week vacation to Hawaii with my mom, my sister and her family and my family. It was great and I actually only gained 2 pounds, but when we got back home, I never got back on track for some reason. Since then, I gained another 8 pounds, so I'm still down 20 from when I started last February.
I think I'm ready to tackle this again. My goal for this month is to lost 5 pounds. My main obstacle will be the cruise that DH and I are going on from January 19-29th. My plan is to get back on my healthy eating until we leave and then make good choices when we are on our trip. I know cruise ships offer lost of healthy choices and I need to focus more on them than I usually do on vacations. I also plan on being more active while we are on the ship. Typically when we cruise, we are pretty active when we are on post days, but pretty much lounge around by the pools on sea days. I plan to change that this year.
Here's to 2017 and everyone achieving their goals!
