Info
Name: Kaye Ohlendorf
Age/Gender: 67, Female
Location: Lockhart, Texas
About Me: Since this is about losing weight, I have only been under weight twice in my life. Once as a child, and once as a young adult on a high protein diet at 113 lbs. When I lived in New Orleans I gained to 155 or so but lost before Ed and I married and remained at 138 for several years until we stared a family, when I join Weight Watcher and lost 15 lbs. I kept that off until gaining 50 lbs. while bed-ridden and pregnant but lost all but 10 lbs. However, I continued to gain 10 lbs. with each baby and after several serious illnesses ballooned to 234 lbs. Cortical steroids saved my life but caused me to put on a lot of that weight and develop diabetes as well. However,I found a diet that enabled me to lose 65 lbs. or so, and now my weight at the beginning of this diet is 171lbs.
Goals: I still have 40 or so to go to reach my goal and have been on a plateau for a long time. I am anxious to get started losing again. My goals are to be able to do more without feeling winded, and be able to enjoy my children and grandchildren more with less effort through better nutrition and exercise.
Favorite Activities: Swimming, walking with a friend, I'm open to learning other things, too. Any suggestions?
Weaknesses: Osteoporosis in my back.
