I just had my 53rd birthday. We celebrated with pizza. I've been married for 16 years. No children but 4 german shepard dogs. I'm retired from the Air Force and now work for the county sheriff's department. My job isn't very active so I have to make an effort to get some exercise. I was diagnosed with type II diabeties in 2005. It was quite the eye-opener. Since then I've been more aware of what I eat. I've changes some of my habits but I feel guilty when I stray. I'm looking foward to working with this site and all of you.
