The Beginning

This is my first post to this so I will keep it simple.  I am looking forward to sharing experiences with anyone who reads this of the ups and downs of being a curvy lady in a society that frowns upon being curvy.  I have been curvy all my life and have finally come to the realization that I must be healthy first, which means being active and trying to be healthy.  Every time I lose weight all the pounds I lose seem to find me again and they bring along some friends. 🙂 Today I am at my heaviest weight.  I want to lose weight don’t get me wrong, but what I’ve finally realized is that I have to change my lifestyle and then maybe my body will change with me.   I am very lucky I don’t have any of the health issues that go along with being morbidly obese.  However, over the years I know the physical damage being done to my body because of the excess weight.  My knees definitely feel it.  I know that being a size 8, 10, 12 is not for me.  I’d be happy with a 16 or 18.  I just want to be healthy and I know there will be curves on my body and I’m ok with that.
