Introduction Text I have been fighting the battle of the bulge to some extent since I was a teenager, and although I have never felt I won the war, I always felt I had a fighting chance. That is, until I hit 40. Then all of a sudden, my metabolism just disappeared. No matter what I did, it seemed like I couldn't shed an ounce, yet if I dared eat a bit of junk food or dessert, I would immediately gain. I joined the BLC in the hopes it would give me the push I needed to finally lose the weight before I hit 50. The progress has been painstakingly slow, but at least finally there has been some progress. I didn't hit the goal by 50, or even 52 ... or 53... but I am getting closer, little by little and I am feeling a lot better now. I am probably healthier now than I have ever been in my life, so now I just need to make the outside picture match how I am feeling inside. Piece of cake! Oops, make that piece of celery!!!!

My goal is to feel absolutely great about how I look by my next birthday!!

I just started Chalean Extreme and I'm lovinn it! Other than that, I am always changing it up: Zumba, yoga, wogging, Boot Camp...you name it, if it's an exercise class I'll probably do it! Food is a little trickier, but generally no junk food, as little processed food as possible, lots of freggies, and try to only eat when I'm actually hungry.

I live in Thompson, Manitoba, Canada where the winter is just too darn long! So, where's that global warming everyone's talking about anyway! Sure makes you appreciate our fabulous summers though!

I have too many interests. I keep thinking I should drop one, but then I don't want to let it go! Right now I am in the local theatre group, go to Zumba and yoga classes, curl once a week, and try to find some time to spend with my dog. Oh yeah, the hubby is allowed to tag along with us too!
