I live in Florida and work full time as a pediatric RN. Married to Robert (April 2001) and we have 2 lovely boys: Matthew (10/2002) and Andrew (11/2003). As you can see I have my hands full having 2 boys a year apart. My weight gain came when I had major surgery in 1996 and was put on steriods to reduce swelling. Then when I was pregnant I gained more weight and between pregnancies I didn't get the weight off all the way. Now I am at 170 pounds with a goal weight at 120. My goal is to lose at least 1 pound a week.
My husband and I have a challenge every week to see who can lose the highest percent of weight weekly and then the loser has to do a chore that the other one tells them to do. He is a diabetic that is very over weight. He isn't motivated so I have to make this "fun" for him.
We use to eat out alot because I knew of all the kids eat free days at certain resturants. Now I have decided that we should save that money and eat at home. I would like some quick health recipes.
Glad to be a part of this blog and have the support I need from other ladies who need to lose weight also!
Take Care,
Elaine
