I am 40 years old and have been dieting off and on since I was 12...not my idea, but my mom's who always struggled as a child and adult with her weight. I don't want to blame her for my struggle, but I think the years of her having me on diets when I was 5'2" and 105 pounds messed me up a bit. As an adult I crave sweets and junk...I used to go into my own pantry and pig out...geez I am an adult now I could have sat at the table to do that, but I always felt like I had to sneak.

So now that I am into my 40's and I have two wonderful friends that have banded together with me to get fit and healthy it is time to stop the yo-yo dieting! I put a picture of myself and my friend that is on fatsecret...once the other one joins I will have to get a group photo!

Here is to a healthy and skinny 2010!!
