Well, I'm back again. I was on here and lost 40 pounds a couple years ago, then had a miscarriage and fell off the wagon. I am happy to say that my husband and I had another baby, and I gained another 50 pounds. EEK! I came back last year to try and lose some of this weight, but unfortunately, with a newborn and a 3 year old, I just didn't have time to log my food. I had enough trouble trying to get enough sleep!

But now, my youngest is sleeping through the night and he weaned himself this weekend. Since I no longer have the excuse of, "Well, I'm nursing. I need the extra calories!", I am recommitting myself to my weight loss goals. But I need your help!

I need to have some accountability. I always start off strong, but then it tapers off and I go back to what I've been doing. I really want to be healthy for my family and for myself.

I have signed on to run a 5K in April, so that's some motivation for me, but I have learned, after trying to do it on my own, that I need the community on MFP to really be successful. There are so many wonderful inspirational people on here that have gotten healthier and happier and I want to be one of them.

So what do you say? Can you help me be accountable for my actions? Can you listen to all my whiny crap when I'm having a hard time staying on track?
