Weight

I've struggled with my weight since 2004.  It was that time that I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism.
Before that I averaged size 7, around 125 pounds.  Now I'm at 190, size 14.

I've stopped talking about, but I need to start again.  Why did I stop talking?  People would assume it's my fault.  They would assume that my thyroid pill would take care of it.  I even had an endocrinologist tell my husband to buy me bigger clothes.

People, a thyroid pill is not a magic cure.  You still have symptoms.  You still struggle with weight.

I don't eat horribly unhealthy food.  I don't eat all the time.  I do move around.  I don't sit on my ass all the time.  Although the more I've struggled with this lately, the more I've sat around.  I'm tired of trying and not seeing any results, so why try?  I trained for and completed a 1/2 marathon last year.  Not a pound lost.

There's my introduction.

Test post...

I'm trying to figure out how to post a post on one of my other pages.

Jenny Craig

I started the program yesterday. So far the food tastes great. They put me on the 1200 calorie meal. I think I was doing around 3-4,000 before. I never really paid attention and I know my portions were way to large.

Yesterday was a decent day. I pretty much stuck to the menu, except there was some cookie dough in the fridge that I couldn't resist. I also played Tennis. DH used to play all the time, but that was a first for me. I wanted to go again today, but he says it is to windy. So, we're heading off to buy him a Racquetball racket and we'll play that instead.
I think those are easier for me because they really don't seem like the dreaded 'exercise'. And I tend to be pretty competitive.

Sorry, I've teased you with my new camera and not put up any pictures from it! Things have been busy with my schoolwork and the kids.
Daughters volleyball tournament started today, so we'll be doing that all next week.
