Day One

Katy Fries and Diana Westin are trying to change their lives. We have been wonderful Mothers and thoughtful wives, and the effort of which has been very rewarding but kinda clogging to the arteries. We are larger women than we want to be, and we are ready to take charge of our health and well being and put our smarts to work on getting our bodies healthy. I am Katy, and my journey is potentially a longer one that Diana's. She needs to lose 80 lbs. I need to lose 120. The doctor at Kaiser told me to exercise for an hour a day, join Weight Watchers and take St. John's Wort. Diana has been pursuing a treatment course to get the lap band, but thinks that once she loses the requisite 40 lbs.... she will be doing well enough to keep on going. We have both explored and invested in the diet industry and have ended up here... where we are... Right now. So, we begin this journey, with each of us posting ideas and coming up with photos, thoughts and ideas about what two peri-menopausal chicks with stretch marks and guts that jiggle and protrude think about life, health and friendship.
