I'm 27 and a mom of 5 beautiful kids. I was never a heavy person until I started having kids. My lowest weight as an adult was 125 and my highest was around 230. I am currently 176lbs with a goal of 130. I can't do this alone and sometimes need to be inspired to stay on my journey. I'm an emotional eater and need to fix that! I started this new journey almost 2 weeks ago at 185 lbs. I just joined my fitness pal 3 days ago and joined the gym 1 week ago. I hope that these tools are going to help me succeed. Please feel free to add me as a friend I like having people to talk to who are working towards similar goals!

    My sister's wedding is coming up in late July. If I lose 2 lbs per week for the next 22 weeks, I can be at my goal by her wedding and still have time for bridesmaids dress alterations! I cannot let this one go. I'm gonna make it this time! I need people to pester me and keep me on track sometimes... Let's hope this works! My ticker is for my first short-term goal.
