Obese is such a scary word. It would be the equivilant of the I word for a man.

The past 10 years have been devoted to my children, husband and job and I have neglected myself.

Well, it's time to take myself back again. I really want to be that attractive, healthy, sexy woman again.

I need help. I need motivation to get these pounds off. I need a gym partner. I need support and friends to help me.
