I have been married for almost 25 years with two sons ages (almost) 18 and almost 21. My husband is retired Air Force EOD and now works for the USPS, and I am a secretary here at Shaw AFB. I've been trying to lose weight since before my wedding. I was around 140 back then and thought THAT was heavy! My weight has piled on over the years. My high was about 217. When we're both in the mindset to lose weight, my husband and I make a friendly competition out of it and weigh in every Saturday morning. We log it in a spiral notebook and if we both show a loss or maintain, we treat ourselve by going out for a healthy dinner that evening. Otherwise, we really try to refrain from eating out. He works as a mailman for the USPS now and does a lot of walking at his job. Unfortunately, secretaries typically don't get a lot of exercise at their jobs, which is why I need to walk at least 2-3 days per week at the track. I have tried TOPS, but just don't have the time for meetings nowadays.
