Hello everyone! I'm a 24 year old mother of 2. A 5 year old daughter and a 4 yer old son. I'm a full time student and I work part time. I have a lot of weight to lose (I'm 258lbs as of this morning) I have a hard time staying on track because all I can think of is how freaking long this process is and I want results NOW. I'm working hard to get over that mindset and I hope this motivates me to do better!0

Hi, I'm Liz & new to using MFP. I have been a member for awhile but just never used it, so here I am, trying to change that. Oct 1, 2015 I was 207 lbs (5' 1") & feeling awful. I have currently dumped about 50 lbs & want to dump an additional 20 more but I have been slipping up with my diet recently. I incorporated running into my routine back in March & just completed my very first 10K this morning but I am learning the hard way that just because I am running....it is not license for me to eat whatever I want. I need to reel in my eating habits if I want to achieve my goal. Glad to have found you ladies!!0

Hi @LizSmith55! Welcome to this group! Wow that you accomplished a 10K, that takes some serious committment! We are all here trying to stay on track with our goals.. I found that I started doing much better when I have a group of people that I actually get to know and I hold myself accountable to checking in with them every day. Looking forward to getting to know you better!! Keep checking in every day!

Hello there! I'm not really new to MFP but feel that I could use a little bit of motivation to get myself going again so I decided to join in with you all. I'm currently trying to lose about 10-15 lbs. I seem to do pretty well during the week....and then the weekend hits! Then by Monday....I'm starting all over again.
I work part time, and am a mom to two boys (who are no so little anymore). I am a pretty regular exerciser....thats not my problem....its the food I have a hard time with! I run a few times a week, plus do a number of different strength workouts that I have on DVD.
Look forward to being here!1 -
Welcome @maureli ! You and I are on the same boat! I behave well during the week, and then the weekend, well, not so well! I've been in and out of weight programs, and finally seems to be sticking! I've been on maintenance for about two months, more out of a busy schedule and trying to see how difficult maintaining is with this new perspective I've found. I lost my last 20lbs in the last six months or so. I will probably attempt 10 more pounds in the next few months, maybe.
I stay home with two boys (10&11) and I'm trying to get into grad school, which means I'm really stressed about taking the stinking GRE (I have not seen any of the math, other than statistics, in the last 20 years!
Hope you enjoy reading an participating!0
