I'm 48, am married and have 3 awesome kids ages 25, 21 and 16. I am the cafeteria manager at the Middle School in my town. I am 5'2" and weigh 108 and fluctuate between 107 and 110. I quit smoking May 19th, 2008. I put on 11.8 lbs and felt horrible! Referred by a friend, I went to a Nutritionist/Trainer. She is terrific! I always knew how to lose weight, but I found that getting older, going through menopause, quitting smoking, and a job position change threw me totally off track and I couldn't get it together. I love this website! Livestrong keeps me on track, focused and rewarded because it has a great support system (the members) who give great advice who really care about others, and it's open 24/7! I love art, music, gardening, my newly re-found love of bike riding (ah, the freedom, the beauty of nature, not to mention the exercise), and am a severe weather nut!
