Weight

All my life I've fought the weight problem. This picture was taken at Christmas time and I was at my heaviest. I went to a doctor and he said lose it or die... well, you know, sometimes they really can scare you straight! So I started a diet in March and so far I've lost almost 30 lbs. I'll keep updating the photo but this is going to be the before picture... and just so you know how serious I am.. I had a volunteer at work bring me some dark chocolate from Trader Joes.. my favorite. I didn't eat any of it, even though it was opened by others... I just put it in someone else's cubby at work and left it there.. that's how I know this diet is going to succeed... will power!

Easter

Easter at my house... boy am I lucky to have the kind of family that still likes to hunt down those Easter eggs. That's Mom with little brother's family - and yes, I'm the one taking the picture. I love my family..
