Some background on me....

First of all I must say, OOPS! on the spelling of the actual blog link, guess I typed too fast and spelled roller as rollar. Oh well!

So here's a little about me. I am a 28 year old female that has been married since July 28th, 2007. My husband and I decided we wanted to start a family around our 2 year anniversary. We have been trying since then. I come from a family of what we call ourselves as "fertile myrtles," but apparently I am not one of them.

I never thought I would be someone that would have trouble because my periods have always been regular and everything seemed normal. My husband does have counts that go up and down, but with being a truck driver and sitting all the time, that can cause issues.

I have also always struggled with my weight. I've always been a little on the bigger side, don't get me wrong I'm not OBESE visually, I hide it well, but my little Wii Mii will blow up on the Fit game and tell me, "You're Obese!" Thanks... thanks a lot! LoL But anyways... At one point of my life I did get some amazing self control, with the help of my mom, and get down to a size 7 and about 137lbs. Well... sadly that didn't last. I was back up to a size 12 by the time of my wedding. Earlier this year I got to the highest weight I've ever been and just felt trapped. I went to a hypnotist and lost 12 lbs. Which I gained back about 7 of it within a few months. My Dr. suggested that I lose atleast 10 lbs or more to get to a better place as they showed I was borderline metabolic syndrome. Which I think is like pre-pre diabetic. So I started the South Beach Diet as suggested and in 5 days I have lost 7 lbs. Phase 1 is not so fun... and I am getting so sick of cheese and stuff. I am making sure I stick to it though, so I'm hopeful to get under the 200lb mark this week. Yes... I am over that right now, but won't be for long!!!

Well today is another hard day with regards to the pain of the cramps and I also have IBS, which always flares up during the change of seasons, so my plans to clean house and organize things has fallen to the wayside. I'm hopeful tomorrow I will feel more up to it. The pain was so bad that I spent 30 mins in the bathroom with a heating pad and a bucket in front of me because it was making me feel sick and every so often I thought I would pass out from the pain.

I have had that happen only once. While up at my lakehome in the fall I went into the bathroom and I remember turning around to close the door and I woke up wedged between the toilet and the vanity. My arm had knocked the toilet paper right off the roll and it landed somewhere nearby. LoL I wasn't out long, as no1 knew any better when I came out. (See I warned you it might get personal... heh)

well that's all I have for now...
