Hello everyone! I am a 42 yr old mother of 7 who has battled severe Crohn's disease and Colitis for the past 2 years. While sick, I was bedridden and put on a lot of weight. I am on new medication and feel a thousand times better so I want to lose weight. My initial goal is to lose 30 lbs by my husband's college graduation in May. It's a big goal, but I'm just going to plug away and see what I'm capable of. Long term goal is to lose at least 73 lbs by the end of the year. Good luck everyone!

    Hi there! I'm sorry you had such a rough time, but you can do this! I too am a mother on the road to recovery (cancer) and am working towards getting as fit as possible through good food and lots of exercise! You can add me.
