Hello! I am a 27 year old mother of 2 boys, ages 3 and 2! I am desperate to lose about 20 lbs to be back to a normal size "me". I was a high school and college athlete, so in my head I know what I need to do. But - as you all know - life as a mom can really get in the way, so I need some extra encouragement/motivation...heck, maybe even a drill sargeant. Today starts a new me...I've logged in my calories and exercise for the day and am off to a great start... Just trying to make it last!

    You just need to find what motivates you! For me, it's not buying new clothes, or going on a trip. For me, it's getting the tattoos I've always wanted. And YOU CAN DO IT!!!!!!
