Recently retired middle school teacher now working part-time. Three years ago, I moved to S.C. from Mass where I spent most of my life. Gained 30 pounds of fat eating and living the "Southern lifestyle." Currently have lost 28 lbs. since June through Nutrisystem first, then just common sense portion control, calorie counting, and physical activity. My goal is to reach 155 lbs and maintain it. I currently eat 1500 calories a day over 3 meals and 3 snacks. 5 more lbs to go!Hobbies include fishing, target shooting, scale model building, and poor guitar playing.
