Another New Kid on the Block!
Hi everyone....I've been reading others intros and some of the other forum posts.....wow what a wonderful supportive group you have here.....I'm very glad I found it...
Well a little about myself....
My IRL name is Tammy - I am 42 years young, with 5 wonderful children....ranging in ages from 18 (graduating this yr) to 5 (just started school) so I have quite the array of phases going on....but it's always entertaining
This is really a strange position for me to be in....I have always been that sickening person that could eat anything, anytime and never had to worry about it.....well about a year ago that all changed......age, metabolism rate, life too busy to eat good foods, call it whatever you like, fact...I started putting on weight.....I am now 20-25 lbs heavier than I've ever been (with the exception of pregnancy of course) and slowly increasing. Compared to some, I know that sounds like so little weight, but I'm 5'1" and can't even begin to think of fitting into anything I own.....and yes, it's quite depressing....but it's all so foreign also....so I found myself looking for a way that I could not only lose some weight, but to create a different lifestyle in order to stay where I am happy with ME!!!
So where am I now with this wonderful ANA program? I started induction about a week and a half ago....just dove in....didn't have the book, didn't have a clue what I was doing, just heard this is what you do.....and over the course of a few days got more "legal information" about induction which I had already messed up on a few things.....
So today I found myself at Barnes and Noble...I have my books, my grocery shopping is done and I'm so excited to get started on the rest of my life.....beginning with those first 2 wks!!!
I'm so excited to have this site for support and have the opportunity to meet you all and to support you through your own lifechanging journies!!!
If you haven't figured it out already, I don't tell a short story.....teacher in me!!
Look forward to getting to know you all
