I am looking for friends for motivation with similar stats.

A little about me. I am a wife and a mother of four children. In 2009/2010 I lost 50lbs with weight watchers and that is the best I have ever felt in my own skin. I loved to run and be active. In 2011 I had our last child and gained some of my weight back. Over the past 6 years I have lost some and gained some. I am at my highest weight ever:( A few weeks ago I was diagnosed as pre-diabetic so here is to getting healthy for me.

I am 5ft 2in. I am starting off with some small goals such as 5% and than 10% and go from there. I live in Wisconsin so the weather has not been in my favor. I work in an office so I don't have a very active day but when its not brutally cold I walk on my two breaks. I am going to pick a 5k or 10k to run this year to get me motivated to run again. We have a treadmill and elliptical at home and I have also printed a few home workouts that I hope to get my older girls to take part in with me. I know I will not eat 100% all the time because if I cut out everything I am only setting myself up for failure. My goal is 80/20 at least. This is not a diet its a life style change and little by little will achieve.

My husband and I attend rock fest every year so my goal is to fit back into some of my cute summer clothes.

Any good advice you have please share.
