I am starting over. Completely over. About 4 years ago using this site I lost 50 pounds. I was down to a size 4 and looked and felt GREAT. Planned a wedding and looked killer for it. Then... I got pregnant and lazy. And now here I am back where I started... no... worse... because I am at the heaviest I have ever been. I'm unhappy and I really do not like the way I look. I got back on the wagon almost 3 weeks ago and have tried to be really serious about it. In the first 2 weeks, I lost a little over 7 pounds and an inch and a half off my waist. I'm really looking forward to continuing that trend in a healthy way WITHOUT starving myself or denying myself the things I love. I would very much like to meet new people to share this journey with, especially other mom's in the position I find myself in. Someone to cheer me on, cry with me, and kick me in the butt when I need it and to help hold me accountable.

Thanks for taking the time to read <3 I just felt the need to re-introduce myself, tell me current story, and start off on the right foot with accountability.

    Welcome back...this is my second time around as well. I lost all my weight got down to a great size...got pregnant with twins, then two months after their birth lost my fiance to a motorcycle accident. I picked up the weight I lost and some. I have been on the site again for over a month now and this was just what I needed to feel normal again.
