Hello everyone! I'm in the middle of week 3 and I thought I better start one of these journals to keep myself in line. I tried to start one a few weeks ago and I screwed it up somehow so I'm starting over! Here's a little info on me. My name is Mary Rose, age 50. My husband and I are doing this together. We both have hit a 50 age crisis! Him more than myself. Ha! Sleep apnea, HBP, family diabetes, etc. I've had HBP for 23 years and I don't think that will change much. We had a major loss in our life 26 months ago when we lost our 20 year old son. He was in an auto accident and he died from injuries he sustained in that accident. I'd say we started the uncontrollable eating, eating out..I'm sure you know what I mean. SO..here we are. Thank God we're doing this together! It's so much easier. My goal is 54 lbs. and his 80 lbs. A NEW LIFE!

Memorial weekend was very hard on us. I did okay but it was hard! He didn't fair as well. He was the cook at our nephew's graduation party and you can only imagine how that went. He's been a snacker while he cooks from way back. He's definitely paying for it now. We weigh in tonight and he's not thinking it's going to go well. I don't think I've lost my 2 lbs but I don't think I've gained either. We'll see.

I'll be back because I've got a long way to go!!

hi, rosie. sounds like a lovely weekend with maddie! so kind of you to help her mommy get some rest. it can be tough sometimes with a little one.

my son's still home with a fever. the rash has subsided, but i'm told it might resurface for months to come. geeeeezzzzz. but as soon as the fever's gone for 24 hours, he should no longer be contagious. i'm stressing about work, but i'm sure things are fine a couple days without me . . . .

Quick post here....scales down 1.4 lbs. this morning so I don't feel too bad about the splurge at Logan's restaurant on Sunday.
