2013 will be my year!
With bathing suit season approaching, it's time to get to work!
I'm determined to lose weight this summer.
-------------------------------
Background on me:
During my first pregnancy I became gestational diabetic and although it disappeared after the delivery, I became prediabetic a year later. That scared me and so I focussed and lost 50-60 lbs before my next pregnancy.
I didn't go diabetic during my second pregnancy ...

Background on me:

I didn't go diabetic during my second pregnancy (and my sugar numbers are still fine) but unfortunately, food aversions did me in and I ended up gaining back a good portion of the weight.
I managed to lose a solid 50lbs of weight in 2008 but gained back most of it due to chronic sinus infections and a car accident. (I couldn't exercise because of bad whiplash and I stress ate.)
Turning 40 hasn't been fun for me. I've had a multitude of injuries and ailments... pulled ligaments in my left hip, pulled IT Band on my right hip, plantar faciitus on my right foot, heel injury on my left and weird intestinal/stomach pain. Hoping some weight loss and a new year will result in positive physical changes!

~Nicole~ There is a thin line between knowing when to give up and when to try harder. Dieting is unpleasant and bad days are wretched, but dropping dead is worse. Tomorrow will be better.
