Hello to whoever is reading this. My name is Carol, I'm 51, newly married on March 24th 2018. I have an amazing 17 year old son, my husband is pretty cool. They both love me as I am, but want me to lose the weight so I can be with them a very long time. I was thin and healthy for most of my early life right until my late 30's, since some major happenings that caused me to become depressed for probably 12 years, I steadily gained weight and never tried to lose it, that is until a few years ago, I managed to lose about 70 pds but also managed to gain it back and a bit extra. I was 135 pds in my 30's, and I am now 320 pds, but I was up to 336 just a couple months ago. My birthday is March 7th, and by my birthday in 2020 I want to be down 130 pds, that is my first long term goal, my 1st short term goal is to lose 20 more pds by my birthday this year. My work is starting a challenge and have encouraged us to use FatSecret so here I am. I'm looking forward to the challenge, and sharing it here. This is a pretty exciting tool I think. My over all goal is to get to be about 145 pds maybe a little less
