Hi from 2011!

So in 2011/2012 I was super active on here, lost 30+ lbs, had a bunch of friends I talked to who really helped me stay motivated. I've tried over the years to get going on MFP again, but life (and now 2 kids) seem to keep getting in the way. I think a key to my success in the past was having a network of buddies on my feed who I chatted to and who kept me going!
I'd love to have some new friends - especially if you're similar to me!
I'm 35 and have a 5 year old and 1 year old, and it seems so freaking hard to fit in workouts and keeping up with healthy eating. But I'm so tired of being overweight, tired, and just bleh feeling. I need to lose about 30lbs again (sigh), and more than that, as I'm older now I'm thinking more about the future and keeping myself healthy.
I think I'm going to attempt some intermittent fasting as well just to try something new!
