    Marshmella.... I hope everything ends up well for you. Being a survivor of cervical cancer and having multiple surgeries to remove cysts that had grown into the size of grapefruit and completely taken over my ovaries I feel your pain. I'm lucky to have my children at all considering the Drs said I never would.. LOL.
    It's always a stressful situation but I'm wishing you all the best!

    36, mom to a six year old spitfire of a girl! I do need to lose about 25lbs but more concerned about getting and staying healthy. I'm seeing my daughter craving some of the awful food choices (like raw cookie dough) I make and between my family history and gestational diabetes I am very high risk for type 2 diabetes. I have to learn to control the cravings and make better choices. I can't let my daughter grow up thinking it's okay to eat that way. Luckily she will eat a pint of strawberries just as quickly as she would a bag of mini donuts, I need to get on that page too LoL Thanks for making this group! Feel free to add me, going to swallow hard and open up my diary for some more accountability. Here goes nothing!

    I'm also at high risk for diabetes. I need to get rid of about 50-60 lbs. I just recently got a bike and am aiming at loosing 1-2 lbs a week. I'll settle for 1 but push for 2. I also have a hard time with my food choices and have two kids looking at me. We can do this!
