I am 34 and will be turning 35 the end of June. I have been yo-yo dieting since i was in junior high school. I finally feel that I have a handle on it...it only took 20 years. I have a wonderful girlfriend that pushes me when I need it and I do the same for her. I have no children, but do have a 15 pound cat, he's just big boned though...no need to worry :) I work as a bartender at an airport, which I love and it keeps me moving constantly, but it is hard to eat right at times. I am here because when you surround yourself with ppl who have the same goals in mind, it is easier to achieve your own.
