About Me

I teach in a youth corrections facility, and before I started losing weight, the boys would ask when my baby was due. GRRRR. Kids can be so mean. I have three kids of my own (and they aren't mean) and am married to my best friend, who is losing weight with me. I started MFP after I had already lost nine pounds on my own. I needed a way to be accountable without paper and pen, and being able to keep track of my exercise here is very helpful.

Why I Want To Get In Shape

I have never been a skinny b**t**, but I was always healthy and fit until I had my kids. I felt like a slug before I started losing weight, but now, just halfway through, I feel beautiful and more sleek. My friend and I call each other throughout the week and ask each other, "how are you, skinny b?" We laugh and smile and know we are not bikini models, but we are looking way better than we did a few months ago.
