Trying to lose weight...How depressing !

Last week I decided to get on the scale at work and weigh myself..how depressing!! I weigh more than I did when I was 9 months pregnant with Kristen So now I'm trying to make some "changes" ..not easy!
Probably the biggest change I need to make is exercise I love to walk with my ipod..i just don't like to walk in the cold :) So I've found some exercises I can do with my exercise ball I had to get for my herniated disc
My other big challenge is my "snacks" I don't overeat at meals but I do "graze" especially when I'm home by myself and I LOVE candy...gobstoppers,Mike & Ikes, and chocolate covered raisins being my favorite
So...this is all new for me ..I was always underweight growing up and was able to stay where I needed to be in my 20's and 30's but when I hit 40.....:(
Now I have to practice what I preach to my patients :)
