Hi everyone!

I’m Sarah, I’m 31 years old and I’m a mother of 2 boys. 1 is almost 2 and the other is 5.

As you can tell this isn’t the first time I’ve started this journey but I’m hoping this is the last time!

I’ve spend the whole of my adult life struggling with my weight and I almost lost it all until I fell pregnant with my first. I gained quite a bit in my pregnancy.

After having my son I spent 18 months faffing around before getting serious and almost made it to my pre pregnancy weight before I decided I wanted another. Which I fell instantly.

Well, I promised myself I wouldn’t gain like I did before, which backfired and I gained majority of the weight I lost back.

But I then suffered with depression which resulted in gaining even more and now 22 months later I’m ready to start over for the 5th time this year 😭😭

But I’ve decided I need some moral support as my family don’t believe me that I’m going to do this. I want to keep my WeightLoss from them and that way there is no pressure. Even my husband made a remark about how it won’t last. Wasn’t like him to say that and I did express my feelings about what he said so that’s all dealt with.

I’m a terrible emotional eater and with it being the summer holidays I’m feeling anxious that I won’t be able to handle the kids stressing me out as they do fight a lot and somedays I feel like hitting my head against the wall!

So is there any mums on this journey who can help me! Also, if you made it this far, well done!
