I am 43 years old. Married to my DH for 15 years. I have one son(22) who is married and just gave me a precious grandson a year and a half ago. I love my family and am determined to be around for them. I have struggled my whole life with my weight and have so far not been successful in shedding it, but I am not giving up. I will continue to keep trying until I beat this! I am a follower of Jesus Christ. God is the most important thing in my life! I am an avid reader and like to write. I enjoy painting and doing crafts. I am hoping to be an encouragement to others on FS and to be encouraged :)
