Eye On The Prize! This Will Be My Best Year Ever!!
* I've been on an extended break (2+ yrs) but the goal is still the same! Chronic health issues have been my excuse; but they are also my motivation. Back to the old me: the glass is half full! 02/05/2017 I am determined to lose weight; and, as a result, improve my overall health. Changing ingrained habits will be key to my success. My eye is on the prize and I am ready to work to accomplish my goal! (2012 approximate date I penned this)

Personal Information:
I am 57 and have been married 32 years (on Income Tax Day, Apr. 15). We have one daughter who is 27 and works in Maryland. I live in Charlotte, North Carolina. I retired in 2008 after 32 years in education and my family- especially my husband and daughter feel it is about time- I am a true workaholic!! I seem to be busier than ever and looking at my calendar I don't know how I ever had time to work.
I haven't had much success building my SparkPage or posting pictures; my daughter has done all the work thus far on her visits home. Hopefully that will improve soon.
Best to each of you in all your endeavors!
Denise (but I prefer D.)

PS Did you think I was a guy because of my username? When I saw DON I said oops but I like what my username stands for Doing Great In Charlotte, NC!

I know, I know...it's been a while. I just went back to the gym after a 4 month break. Still trying to lose that "pooch", so I am off bread! Hope that helps along with the juicing.
