I'm a 29 year old mom of 2 and I began eating healthy and working out for the first time in my life about 2 weeks ago.
My breaking point was when I recently went to the doctor for a routine checkup and was told I have gained 11 pounds in the past 6 months since I started using the depo shot. I was also put on medication for high blood pressure, but my doctor says with a healthy diet and exercise I should be able to discontinue the meds. I am also no longer taking depo.
My goal is to lose 20 lbs and just feel better overall. I think this site just might be the one for me. It looks easy to use and I love that there is a message board to get some encouragement.
