45 yr old widowed mom of 3 wonderful children
boy 18 and on his way to college in the Fall!
boy 16 looking forward to learning how to drive
and girl 14 and growing so fast my head is spinning!!

I've tried so many diets in the past and some I do well on and others fail miserably. I've watched my weight inch up and up over the years but it wasn't until my husband passed away 7 yrs ago that I really packed on the pounds trying to fill the hole he left in the center of my very being.
I first came to FF a little over 2 yrs ago and had GREAT success with it. I lost 50lbs in 8 months and went from a 16 to a 8/10!! I even won a cruise to the Caribbean!! Then East came and I started getting cocky and losing my hold. Stress in life won over and I went back to all my old habits and carb laden foods!

I want health, a trimmer healthier me and to be able to wear all my fun clothing!
