My name is Jen, I'm 45 and overwhelmed with all the weight I need to lose. My motivation to suddenly get healthy has to do with the struggles my mother's going through right now. She has spent a month away from home between hospitals and rehab stays because of Congestive Heart Failure. I don't want this to become my fate. I suffer from a lot of psychiatric issues (too many to get into) so I am easily overwhelmed, and I don't leave my house alone.

My goals right now is to get under 350 pounds. I have a home gym (treadmill, total gym, and punching bag) I can use. We just went to the grocery store and bought healthy foods. I don't cook, so my husband or my eldest son will be doing the cooking.
