I just joined yesterday. I am a busy mom of 3 young children and just 2 pounds away from my goal weight which happens to be about 5 pounds less than my pre-pregnancy weight. I have never looked so good!! I am hoping to lose an extra 6 if possible.

Hello all! I joined around the beginning of April. I was overweight back in 2007 and lost 25 pounds in 2008. Then I got married and started slowly gaining again in 2009. Only this time I gained back the 27 pounds, plus about 10 more. I use to be an exercise buff and was in great shape all until I hit 40. I use to could eat whatever I wanted as long as I worked out 4 days a week. But since turning 40 it's been all downhill. Stress now shows in my face too. The least little thing I eat I gain weight. And the exhaustion and extreme fatigue I feel is horrific. I have a very hard time just mustering up the energy to walk 3-5 days a week. I take vitamins, have tried green smoothies, exercise, get plenty of sleep and still fatigue. I think I have Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, it's that bad. Anyway, I weigh about 184 right now. Have lost 3 pounds total since joining here. Not that great in two months time. I've been keeping my calories under my goal often. And trying to walk 3-5 days a week, but still only 3 pounds in two months. Kind of discouraging, but I'm keeping on! My first goal is to get to 160, then 150 and hopefully 140. Anything less that that I'll be totally thrilled! But I want to at least get to 150. Looking forward to all the great stories, support and posts here!
