Well lets see, I started out at 220lbs..my goal is 115. I am working at this on a daily basis...I don't want to diet my way though life..so I go to a gym...I love food...good fatty ..calorie rich food..so I am planning on being a gym nut for the rest of my life...because it is either that or dieting and failing the rest of my life. I am so tired of seeing something pretty in a store and not being able to buy it and wear it. I have a loving,  attentive husband..( one of those great guys who loves you for just being you..not a weight on a scale) and he is very supportive.
