Looks like this might become a reality for me after all. I've seen several of you come and get skinny -- all while I am still working my way through the process. So many of you have been an inspiration to me!!
Married or single?: Married
Kids: Hubby and I together have four kids and 4 grandchildren.
Pets: My buddy, my pal for 15-1/2 years. His name is Chip. It was just me and him for years and then we welcomed hubby into our lives about 8 years ago.
What I do: I work out of my home office.
I am self-employed and do medical transcription. This is a second career for me; one that I took up when I moved to Florida. I spent 20 years in the computer field prior to that, but was so thankful when I was able to make a change from the corporate world.
Hobbies: Computers, puzzles. Love gardening, cycling, shopping, flea markets, swimming.
