My Goals:
it seems like i have been trying to lose 15 pounds forever. Nothing seems to work .Maybe now with others saying "yes you can", I will too

My Program:
 Thought it was time to change this. I do the elliptical 6 days a week and another 30 minutes 7 days a week plus other stuff.


Personal Information:
I am almost 62 and so excited to collect S.S. My husband Jeff and I have been married for over 38 years and have beautiful twin boys (28). They live in New York and I miss them so much. We have always had a ton of animals but only have 3 cats and one dog now.



Other Information:
 I love food and cook books and recipes,and menu plan every week. We have something new at least 3 time a week. I love to travel and wish we could do it more. I like to read .

    Thank you for the warm welcome.

    I realize that if I strive to do 5-6 times a week right now, I will fail right away. So, my goal is to do at least 3 times a week for the first couple of weeks. Until I can get back into the habit once again. Then I plan on increasing it. Or may even surprise myself and do it right away. LOL Who knows?!

    I was going to go for a walk tonight after work, but once again the storms have rolled across the mountains. So, guess it is a workout video or the Wii tonight. I don't mind the Wii. Doesn't even seem like exercise. LOL

    Hope you have a great Monday! emoticon

    Thank-you Mary - so far we are enjoying Colorado...I am enjoying staying in one place for a while!
    Ireland....I would love to visit there someday. I lived in Hertfordshire, England for 1 1/2 years when I was young and single. In fact, in one flat where I rented a room, my landlady was from Ireland. She was like a second "mum" to me - very protective and nurturing.
    I have been trying new recipes too, some from "Cooking Yourself Thin". I have to say, it's been hit or miss with my new creations lately...haha, fun though :-)
    Have a great day, and thanks for your comments!

    You asked what kind of "closet" artist I am......drawing and watercolor. I really need to get back to it...I really WANT to get back to it! My husband and I have started looking for art classes/teachers in our area.
    That's neat that your husband teaches art, that would be my dream job........ :-)
