I'm too fat. Seriously. I now weigh !@#$#@ pounds more than I did when I got married 30 years ago. I have had coronary artery disease for at least 7 years. It runs in my family and I am the youngest family member ever to have a heart attack. I was 39. (The next youngest was my Mom at 42. She passed away at 63 from a massive heart attack.) And yes, I was overweight then, but not near as much as I am now. I have several annoying problems that are exacerbated by my weight, and with my heart, I basically need to lose some serious tonnage or die. And since I recently became a grandmother, the tonnage must go.
So.
I am starting Weight Watchers Online this week, just as soon as I can get to the store and get some healthy vittles.
And I need your help. I will write here several times a week to keep you apprised of my progress or lack thereof. Your assignment is simple - keep checking in on me, maybe pray for me and write an encouraging comment.
My first goal is 25 pounds. I will give myself 12 weeks to do this. At that time, I will set my next goal, and so on. Please help me by praying and encouraging as I go from seriously overweight to fit and healthy.
Some obstacles I will face: my age - 46: I think my metabolism quit altogether years ago; my meds: I take a medication that is designed to keep my heart rate low, so it is very hard to elevate said heart rate when exercising; my thyroid: I am hypothyroid, and as you know that also slows the metabolism: and last but certainly not least: my appetite - I love food, and lots of it! I admit it, I just love food. There, it's out.
So now I have my assignment - follow Weight Watchers and exercise, and you have yours - pray and encourage.
Let's get to it.

I know you can do it, Mom, and I'm SO glad you're starting! I'll be looking in here obsessively to see how you're doing. :D
That's awesome! You know I struggle myself with actually getting up the will-power to actually do anything about my weight, but I really ought to try, too. One thing that I have done recently is cut down on soda. I am drinking about 25% more water than I used to, but I'm also drinking a lot of Gatorade which is also sugary.
Maybe we should hatch a scheme and use eachother for accountability partners. I'm up for it. :)
