I Am

I am 52 yrs of age. I have been fat or obese most of my life. When I was young I couldn't see how beautiful I really was. I am now married to a wonderful man who is 19 years younger then I am. He believes in me and is my encouragement to believe in myself. I am not going to lose weight or get healthy for him, but for myself. I deserve and I want to live a healthy and active life. Here is my facebook link - frind me:http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=606378680&;ref=profile\#/Lori.DaRosa?ref=profile

My Favorite Charity

American Diabetes Association, Heart Association, Make a wish

To me, Transformation Means

Sometimes I feel like I am inside myself screeming to get out of this body. I have, in the past, interpreted this as a desire to die. but I love life and I want to live. But I am trapped in this body that does not fit who I am. I know that there are probably psycological reasons for the way I am. But it's time to "get over it" and take hold of my own life. My life changed for the better when I got married, but my old habits didn't. True transformation means to me to not only "lose weight" but to get healthy physically, mentally and spiritually for the rest of my life.

My Goals

If you are asking for specifics, I will say that my goal weight is around 150. I full half+ to release from my body. My goal is to release myself from disbetes,.My goal is to build strength. Not just muscle, but that too, I will build a strength of spirit and of self asteme.

My Intentions

My inner spirit loves to run, to practice yoga, to eat healthy and nutricious foods. I CAN and WILL do these things. I love the water. Because of my size I don't swim well, I FLOAT. I will learn to swim correctly when my body is ready. In the mean time I will join a gym with a pool. (a few weeks before I can afford it since I'm unemployed).

Who I'd Like to Inspire

Well, myself of course. But for every obese woman like me who has let her life go by while watching from the sidelnes. For those who have given their hearts to false belief. To those who think that food is their only friend (been there) to those who's bodies have become a stranger or an enemy to them.
