Lurker here

[Guest guest]

Good Morning Everyone.

Yes I am one of those lurkers, I read all emails but never post. See there are many new members. I rejoined the group a few weeks ago, but will intro myself again. My name is and I have five grown children. I will be 57 this month. I live with my son, who is a great motivater for me by the way. I am a new member of WW, joined about four weeks ago. I'm doing the points program and go with my youngest son. I had my weigh in last night and am down a total of 6.6 #. I finally got into the 220's, haven't seen that number in a very long time. I first started this group a few years ago and kind of dropped out, came back starting at 240. I journal everyday, which I never did before and see how much help it really is to do that. I enjoy my WW meetings very much and have met some very nice people there and it really does keep me on track having to account to someone. Also lets me see that I am not the only one struggling some days with exercise, and controlling what I eat. I have always enjoyed this list, great people on here.

So just wanted to pop on this morning and say hi to everyone. Love the affirmations I read on here too. Hope you are feeling better Sue, my daughter had something like what you described and she had thrush, she was so sick for so long with it, so hope you are feeling better.

And have to mention that I am going to have a new grandbaby in March--will be the second. Have a granddaugher, Abby, who I spend lots of time with and enjoy her so much. She keeps me active and that is what I like. She is 9 and she is excited about the new baby brother who will make his appearance in March. (think I said that--can you tell I am so excited) I get to care for him while his parents work.

My biggiest struggle of course is exercise, I have an exercise room with equipment, but it is so hard for me to motivate myself to use it. Have started riding the bike everyday now, and do lift a few weights, but really need to start using my exercise tapes. I enjoy my RS Sweatin to the Oldies. So that is my goal this week, dig them out of my closet and use them. Okay, rambled long enough, will have some of you nodding off here and don't want to do that. Another goal is to post my food each day, kind of helps me do that too.

So good luck to everyone this week and hope everyone has a great week. Also where can I get a meter like you have at the bottom of your post and how do I put it on my posts. That is so cool.
