Our reasons for entering the challenge

Mon, 07 Jan 2008 22:48:02 GMT

My name is Rosenda and my husband is Shane, we have 5 great kids. We have been together 5yr., married 3yrs. We are both not very over weight but we do need to shed some pounds.As a women I have always struggled with my weight. I was thin as teen but it also came with an eating disorder, I have since overcame that disorder, none the less it's always in the back of my head ,(the little voice) .In my 20's after kids I was heavy. it was until 2001 that I started walking and in a year lost 65pds. my trouble is that I quit exercising and I lose all motivation.My husband gives me compliments all the time.I need to learn to accept them .My husband also has in the past been over weight.He like I need to be more motivated.Although he only need to lose like 20 pounds.The great thing about this challenge is we are doing this together, our goal is to learn new ideas to becoming healthier and meeting new people who feel just like us. Supporting each other along in this journey.We want to be healthy for our kids as for ourselves, we enjoying watching the biggest loser.The people on the show are so encouraging.So here we go. I was doing doing weight watchers before.
