56 year old divorced nurse, two grown children, now married, so it's just me and my Border Terrier, Chili. I find it difficult to cook for just me. I also find I eat out of boredom, or loneliness. I'm for the most part, a very happy, positive, glass full person! I have about 45 lbs. to lose. My biggest motivator is trying to stay as healthy as I can for as long as I can. I live in Oregon, where the weather changes every 5 minutes and people are active outdoors in all weather. I never learned to enjoy exercise, so it is my weakest link. I'm hoping to retrain some bad eating habits!
