Hi everyone! If there's one word that describes me it's horses. My life revolves around my son and my horses. I also have a regular job that helps me afford them, ha, ha.. I joined this site to lose the weight I gained seemingly out of nowhere. I had always been very fortunate not to have an issue with weight but late 2013 my metabolism must have just stopped and I gained 25 lbs within a period of a couple months. My goal is to lose 30. I've completely had to adjust how I eat and how I approach exercise which is all new to me. I've always been active but I could literally eat whatever I wanted and however much I've wanted. I guess those days are gone.
To add to my fun I partially tore my ACL last April and put on even more weight thanks to being laid up. It prevented me from riding but I'm back at it again as of July 2014 and feeling so much better mentally now.
I'm hoping this site will keep me encouraged and I can help encourage others to improve our lives and our weights together...:-)
