Hi my name is Katie and I am 33 years old and a mother of two small children. I have been over weight my whole life. I am currently 338 lbs and know it’s time to cut the crap and get in gear. I know I’ll never have a thigh gap and that’s fine with me I just want to be the best mom I can be for my daughters and that is not going to happen shoving my face full of food on the couch. I am looking to lose atleast 100 lbs and then decide from there. Looking for people to support me in my journey. Please send me a friend request I would love to have supportive people on my side.

    Welcome, Katie! :)

    That sounds like a great motivation! Small steps and accumulated effort over time is what worked best for me in the past.

    Hi Katie, I just restarted yesterday. I'm 31 with 3 kids. I started Jillian Michael's DVDs yesterday. I'm alternating between Cardio Kickstart and Killer Buns and Thighs. I'm very sore today but I feel great!! I have about 40-50lbs to lose.
