I am a 45 years young. I have always needed to watch her weight, however I have gained weight so easily lately that I finally ballooned to 170 lbs!

My breaking point was pictures on vacation with my family...I was truly disgusted with myself. That was when I started Weight Watchers & Fat Secret. I love this site - I can put my thoughts and my entire diet down & no one judges me.

I have lost about 20 lbs so far - still have 15-20 to go. I am only 5'4" and I have been down to 120 lbs before, but at almost 46 years old I think I will look gross and old at that age. I am sure that 170 was WAY too much though!

I have 4 children. 3 girls - ages 21,20,17 1 boy - age 18. 2 are mine and 2 are my step-children for last 12 years. I have been going to the YMCA with them so that helps motivate me. Honestly though, working and going to school with all the craziness of 4 kids at home is exhausting!

I am now at a standstill...I am eager to get going as I have a cruise scheduled for February and wish to be MUCH leaner by then.
