This is my first entry and tomorrow morning is the first day of my new plan for living. There is a Weight Watchers group that meets Wednesday nights and I plan to start this week - but I'm not going to wait until Wednesday to get started! 
I am a 56-year-old single woman. I work long hours as a Human Resources Manager and the stress takes a lot out of me. The long hours make it easy for me to take the easy route to dinner through Wendy's drive-thru.
I am 100 lbs overweight. I saw a picture of myself last week and couldn't believe that I had gotten that big. The features of my face have disappeared! It was a shock because I don't look that big in the mirror.
I am also lazy. Even though nothing makes me feel better about myself, I find it hard to make myself exercise. I've had a membership at Curves for two years and with two startups have only gone 5 times... I have a Gazelle on my back porch and I really enjoy doing it but I never get around to it... I live in a great neighborhood where people are friendly and visit in their yards - makes walking the dog fun but when cold weather hit that seemed like a good excuse to curl up on the couch with a blanket...
Today I made some turkey soup, put some turkey in the freezer, made some menus to grocery shop tomorrow, and looked for this site... the first day of my plan!
