The "Big" Intro!

Name: Dimps

Age: 32

Starting Weight: A Whopping 217! That's bigger than I was when I was 9 months pregnant with the first Mini Dimps!

Size: 16

Weightloss Goal: OVERALL- I'd love to be back to my skinny self when I came home from Ireland, 9 years ago. I was 150 or so. SHORT TERM-I'd be happy at 165
VERY SHORT TERM- Haha anything under 200 is ok by me at this point! haha

Weightloss Plan: Getting Active, portion control, no eating after 6pm. Limited processed garbage. (I'm only human I KNOW I'll crave something at one point.)

Weightloss Strengths: Well, I've successfully been healthier before children, and after the first one...so I KNOW I can do it! I don't tend to eat a lot, it's the not being so active part that's put a crunch on things.

Weightloss Weaknesses: I'm full of excuses! I'm always "too busy" to exercise, or "too sick", or "too pregnant" or "too tired" blah blah blah! If I was my own trainer I'd kick my sorry *ss! I don't tend to binge on things, like chocolate and cookies junk etc. I don't really like A LOT of anything so I'm just bein' lazy!

Inspirations:Well besides all the obvious reasons "for myself" d'uh that's a no brainer! and "for my family/hubby/kids"...I'm SICK to death of lookin' pregnant and NOT being pregnant! I'm sick of wearing my "fat clothes" and staring at all my favourite "skinny clothes".I'm at the point of either get back into shape & being healthy so I can wear them or STOP complaining about it! I'm starting to annoy myself!

General about me:Woo Full Time Mom of 2 awesome girls--Mini Dimps (7) and Baby Dimps (19 months)...wife to Big Daddy...in 2 years we had met, gotten pregnant, miscarried, quit my job as an E.C.E., got pregnant again 2 weeks after that ,moved Big Daddy to our place , then moved to Bigger place, had Baby Dimps, got married out of town, Big Daddy was "Downsized" from his Upper Management Position with Loblaws after 14 years! Found him a new job in a new Province so we all moved to Ontario...rented a place, got tricked by homeowners and had to move AGAIN 10 months after that--and FINALLY we are settled in our NEW place, in a great town, around the corner from my parents. I've opened a small home day care semi-full time and am LOVING every minute of it! So...after ALL that's gone on, I think it's time for ME to take care of me--don't u agree?!
