Hi!  I just signed up for the diet bet today and I'm so excited!  I acutally teach Health & Weight Loss classes in doctors' offices and major corporations and have fallen off the wagon myself.  I feel so self-conscious when I teach people how to live healthy lives by eating low-glycemic, handling stress, reading labels, etc.   I never had to worry about my weight before and then when I was 21 years old, my father passed away of a heart attack while shoveling snow.  He was my very best friend and the best Dad and I started eating to fill the void.  I was never considered "heavy" until after I had my children.  It's a struggle and that's why I like teaching it b/c I live it and know what everyone is going through.  I AM GOING TO GET TO MY GOAL WEIGHT THIS YEAR and am so glad to have joined this diet bet!!
