I am 29 years old.
I have a live in boyfriend. We have known each other for about 16 years but have only been in a serious relationship with each other for about a year and half.
I have 1 daughter. She is almost 11.
He has 2 sons, 13 years old and almost 6 years old, and 1 daughter. She is 8 years old.
We have 2 dogs. A 6 year old Blue Fawn American Pitbull, (Stat), who weighs 71 lbs, and a 6 month old Blue American Pitbull, (Silas), who weighs 72 lbs...this week. The baby is currently gaining 3 lbs a week.
I work 2 jobs. I am a full time debt collector, so I sit, between 35-38 hours a week. That's not so easy on the body. I also work at a vape shop part time. That job requires me on my feet the whole time I am there doing side work, and taking care of customers and such. So I do get more exercise now than I did before I started working a 2nd job.
All of my life I have had a really high metabolism. I have been able to eat and drink whatever I want, whenever I want, and never have to worry about gaining weight. And I never exercised either. It was just the perfect way to have things.
However, in the last couple of years, I have learned that my body is changing and my metabolism is slowing down. I can no longer eat a bajillion carbs a day and drink all the beer I want without consequences.
My main goal right now is to lose the 25 lbs I gained over the winter. I would like to lose what I gained, and be able to fit back into my summer clothes from last year.
My long term goal is to lose more than just what I gained recently. I would like to be back to the weight I was all those years when I didn't have to worry about weight gain. I was comfortable there. I felt like I looked good there.
