Hello

OK have to preface this with....this is my very first blog so....

Just wanted to Introduce my self. I am Wyfie4eva on BB however my Name is Sharon. I am 37 years young and I have been overweight my whole life. I am Happily married to a wonderful man who loves me just as I am and we have a 12 yr old son who also loves me just as I am. In 2008 I weighed 220 and made the decision to really try and loose weight. I lost weight however I didn't really do much. I went from drinking a lot of regular soda to a lot of diet soda, the caffeine helps the migraines I get. I actually went down to 185lbs just by switching. WOW that's like 35lbs right? Well I am slowly gaining back, my scale says 188lbs, My Wii Fit says 183lbs however the last time I went to the Dr. the scale said 192lbs so....guess what I'm still not healthy which ever weight is correct.

Thought I had sleep apnea so went to a sleep specialist and found out I don't have sleep apnea, I actually have Restless leg Syndrome and that I am not using but 80% of my lung capacity. The weight I carry is all in my stomach, kinda look like I'm pregnant, I'm not :(. Dr said my fat is pushing up on my lungs and making it hard for me to breathe esp at night. Which is why I have trouble sleeping.

All that said I need to loose about 30lbs, however I would like to loose between 40lbs and 50lbs. which would put me some where between 130lbs and 140lbs.

For the last 3 years I have had a job where I walk a lot sometimes up to 20 miles a day think my average is 10 miles a day though when I work. So I have been getting excercise all along just think my eating habits aren't what they should be. I also due to my sleeping problems have no desire no energy to do any exercising other than what I do at work.

My son got a Wii Fit Plus for Christmas and I've been on it every day this past week. Some days I do more than others however I am going to get rid of this weight so I can be heathier for my family.
