I'm a 40 year old Mom of a 19 year old daughter. I have a demanding job working in the media but I will no longer allow myself to use that as an excuse for eating the wrong foods and not exercising. As my tough love Dad always told me... "suck it up, butter cup." haha
I've been fighting weight most of my adult life. I gained too much weight when I was pregnant and stayed 60 or 70 pounds overweight until 3 years ago, when I finally got back down to 135, just ten pounds from my goal. I have re-gained almost 30 of it over the past year and a half but I have vowed to take it all back off and them some. As I have gotten older, 40 now, I've noticed it is MUCH harder to take that weight off. But i am confident that if I revert to the formula that helped me lose the 65 pounds three years ago, I will be able to do it again. I may just have to exercise more than 4 or 5 times a week.
