Mother of 5...looking for friends

cblaze74

Hello,

My name is Charlene. I'm a 39 yr old mother of 5. My kids ages range from 18yrs to 3 months. I need to lose 50 pounds and need help to keep me motivated. It is so hard to stay on track when you are taking care of 6 other people beside yourself. I would love to hear from some ladies who understand where I'm coming from !

Good morning Charlene! My name is Patty. I just began my weight loss journey again. I am replying even though I do NOT have six children. I have two grown up children (I am 55 on the verge of 56) and two grandchildren. BUT....that being said, I know how very difficult it is to find time to get dressed and showered with two children, so being a mother of five, I give you a lot of credit for taking the weight loss initiative! If I had done that when I was younger, I would not still be struggling with weight loss. I did take off almost 40 pounds about 3 years ago and reached my healthy goal weight. However, the past year has unraveled my weight loss and I am striving to take off the fifteen I have regained. Part of it is the stress of events over the past year including part time care of my mother with Alzheimers and a back injury. I'm not making excuses, just coming to terms with my behavior and its catalysts. I am new here, but I wish you all the success in the world and something tells me that if you have taken it this far, you will succeed!! Step by step....that is what I keep telling myself. Its been two days and I have stayed on track, but the scale slapped me with a weight gain this morning. I am fighting back.. My goal today is to fight for it even harder by drinking my water all weekend and not giving in just because I showed a gain.

Fight with me....come on!!! You can do it, so can I.
