Seeking Female MFP Friends Similar to Me

UmmaOfThree

Hey gals. I'm not new, but I've been in this plateau for a long time and would like to add some friends similar to my body type for help with motivation. I'm 5'3," 155 lbs and size 12. My goal weight is 125 lbs. I have an apple shape which makes it pretty hard to look fit even when I'm not overweight. I've had 3 kids and their ages are 10, 9, and 15 mo. I stay at home right now, which makes it somewhat easier to exercise.

I'm fairly active. I don't work out every day although I'd like to, but when I do, I can tend to work out a lot as I like to push myself. I eat typically 3 square meals and I do snack when I need it. I don't stick with any particular diet plan, but I like to increase my protein so I can keep up my muscle-tone. I have very strong legs, but the rest of me needs work. I like to exercise on the stationary bike, go walking, and for videos I like P90X Kenpo, Yoga, Cardio Barre Ultimate Advanced, Jillian Michaels 30-Day Shred and Leslie Sansone's Walk Away the Pounds.

I struggle with emotional eating. Sometimes I grab the wrong stuff at the wrong time and that sabotages my progress. I know I'm not alone. I have some non-food issues to deal with in order to be able to control this. I like to keep healthy snacking choices available so I can go grab those items rather than unhealthy things. It's a work in progress!

Feel free to just add me if you're interested. Thank you for reading and considering!
