35 years old....motivated again!

Hi, I'm Danette! I'm a 35 year old wife and mom of an 11 year old girl!!!! I've always put everyone else ahead of myself-always ate care of everyone--but me!!! I'm ready to do this for me! I've had workout partners whom veal quit-so I quit! I've lost 96 pounds in a competition at work in 2007-6 years later back at my weight!!! I vowed to not get to 300 again-I'm a stress eater----and ate my way to 339!!!!!! Last week I worked my butt off-ate great and was down 7 pounds!!!!! I'm motivated-for me!!!!!!

    Good for you!! It is very easy to backslide. But once you did it, so you can do it again! YAY!
