The time is now and I need support to make sure it happens!

I have been on and off MFP for several years. I took a 2 year hiatus...while gone I got pregnant and had a baby boy. Well he's 14 months now and there is no more excuses--no more I am pregnant I can eat what I want or I'm breastfeeding I need to eat more. I need to lose 100 pounds (at least) to be healthy. I want my son to know healthy mommy not fat lazy mommy. My husband also is attempting to lose weight too, but he doesn't always make the best partner-- because he can make lots of excuses when it comes to eating healthy.

I am looking for other women who have 100 lbs to lose or have lost that much to keep each other motivated. I enjoy keeping others motivated and accountable, but I need the same for me--so message me if you have similar goals!!!
TIA!

I don't have 100 lbs to lose but congratulations on making a healthy decision for yourself and your son. My husband can eat whatever he likes and so I've found I have to eat something different to him as portion control is more difficult for me. I started with 70lbs to lose and I've got a final 15 to go. Juicing for breakfast really helped me kickstart a healthy day for me. I'm still juicing now and the bonus is the kids love them so they're learning good habits early. Good luck!

That's awesome that you are almost at your goal!! It's not so much my husband can eat anything--he just chooses to. He needs to lose just as much weight as I do, but has more trouble with food choices and portions...which sometimes rubs off on me.
