About

Bio

So far I've lost 40 pounds and 32 inches and gone from a size 16 pants to an 8 thanks to Calorie Count....:)

 

I never really had weight issues until I was about 30 and I slowly started putting on weight.  On a routine physical, I found out that I have a low thyroid (hypothyroidism) and I've been taking medication for it ever since.  It's something I'll have to take the rest of my life.  Although my thyroid is pretty much under control, I do think it makes it harder for me to lose weight.  At least it feels that way.  Maybe it also has something to do with the fact that I'm very pear shaped, and when I put on weight, it's always in my hips, butt, thighs and legs.  It seems like those are the areas that are the hardest to lose weight from (at least it is for me).

I love Calorie-count; it really motivates me.  More than anything, I feel like I'm eating the right kind of food and my body is just healthier.
