I'm 65 plus, wife, mother, grandmother, and retired corporate learning professional. There are a million things I'm not and likewise that I am.
I'm not certified, nor dietician, and no formal education in weight loss. What am I? I am just like you. I am

I'm 65 plus, wife, mother, grandmother, and retired corporate learning professional. There are a million things I'm not and likewise that I am.
I'm not certified, nor dietician, and no formal education in weight loss. What am I? I am just like you. I am schooled in the world of yo-yo dieting, a LIFETIME of programs and attempts, experienced in the land of poor me, why me, and successes and defeats.
I'm a lifetime learner, who has brought my family, friends, and coworkers to the place they need to be, released with the tools they need for life. So, now it's my turn. The focus is on me and my needs for a healthier life.
I'm accustomed to a social circle and invite you along as I give it my all, no distractions, no excuses, to get where I need to be in weight and health.
You might wonder why you should follow this journey, but why not? What have you got to lose? I'm sure we can learn from each other,
... and I'm counting on it and YOU!
Make Good Choices!
KUDOS to you and your journey!

About Good Choices Weigh
My Philosophy
Good Choices Weigh, can help empower your journey to better health and wellness. GCW will provide tools, support, and humor to digest choices in diet and lifestyle. I once told my Doctor, I didn't know why I bothered, and he said, "because Deb, this could be the time it works." Read that AGAIN!
***See your doctor before changing or starting a diet program. This is a personal journey site, providing positivity and support, not a diet plan***
Background Story
While my children were growing up they heard from me, ad nauseam, every time they left the house, "make good choices." The story is as simple or as complicated as that. Why not name a lifestyle after that very sentiment? So Good Choices Weigh was born. It was actually birthed over two decades ago when I led a group of interested ladies on the weight loss path, it was actually a emailed newsletter with a "staff" of friendly writers. On that particular journey I lost 45 pounds. Somewhere interest waned, my enthusiasm dissolved, and I strapped a feed bag on going back to old habits and lifestyle. Sitting around a table recently (check out blog entry) partially inspired the resurrection of the club. We are in this together and I firmly believe it takes a community, like ours, to help each other. Don't isolate, JOIN in.
