I grew up in Hastings, NB that is about 20 miles from where I now live. I got married the first time at 18 years old (1975). All's I can say about that is I was too young. I did get two great sons out of that marriage, Jeffery Scott (23) and Joshua Lynn (21) they are both out of the house but not out of our pocketbooks!!

I got divorced in 1982 and was single for 2 years. I met John in Oct. 1983 and we were engaged Feb. 1984 and married Nov. 1984. We are still together and I am still nuts about the guy!! Our marriage produced two children they are Amy Arminta (15) and Matthew John (13).

I am a Florist; we bought a flower shop 11 years ago, and as most of you know we are in the process of selling it. My husband is a Funeral Director/furniture flooring salesman. Blue Hill is a small town and the two kind of go together. We service 3 towns close to us.

I joined WW in March 1999 weighing 217.6 pounds wearing a tight size 22. I am now at goal and lifetime I weigh between 146/150 and am into a size 10/12. I would like to get to 140 and that is my personal goal. I have maintained for around 8 months. I love the 123 Winning Points program and it has worked very well for me. I am very comfortable with my new lifestyle, and know this is one I can live with.

My exercise of choice is walking/running on my treadmill I am walking 4.1 4.2 and doing some running during the walking at 4.9 to 5.3 miles per hour. I have been ending up with 3 miles in 41 minutes. I hope to improve these numbers. When our weather gets better I will head outside again. I like to walk and listen to books on tape. I have acquired quite a library of them.

My second most favorite thing is to exercise with Denise Austin she is on every morning at 6:30 I treadmill 45 minutes and then do Denise for 30 minutes. I also have a bunch of her workouts on tapes and her equipment even her shoes!! She inspires me because she is my age if she can do it so can I.

My family has been very encouraging of me during my weight loss. My husband tells me everyday how good I look and how lucky he is to have me, how awesome I am etc. etc. to the point it’s almost too much but I won't say anything because I really do like it. I think it also keeps me motivated.

I came to Delphi through my WW leader Zig. She found it and invited me; I fell in love with all the friends and the great support. I lost all my weight while on Delphi.

In addition to being a Florist, I own a Ceramic shop where I teach ceramics and sell finished products. This is something I really love. I also sew and do some stamping pretty much anything "crafty". If I sell my flower shop, I will take more time doing the things I really would like to do. Maybe I would even do some craft shows.

I am fairly new to the computer scene and what I know is very simple. I do know that my friends at CB have made my life a lot more fun!!
