I've been happily married to my husband (and best friend) since 1992 and we have 2 great children ages 13 and 15. I'm a Registered Nurse (so I should know better!!) and work in a surgery center with some very supportive co-workers. I'm committed to making the change to get healthier (and be able to cross my legs, buy clothes, fit into amusement park rides, walk up stairs...you get the idea!!)
