Hey my name is Rachel. I'm almost 27 yrs old... I recently lost 75ish lbs... I'd like to lose about 20-30 more!
I had 3 kids in 3 years and finally got enough motivation to get rid of the extra weight! In the past month, I have been sledding with my kids 5 times! That's more than I've gone in the past 5 years! I want to stay motivated and I'm hoping this place will help with that!

    Hi, Rachel.

    Congrats on your weight loss! I recently lost ten pounds but then put it all back on in the span of two months. Pretty frustrating. I think part of my problem was not having any people to be accountable to in my journey. I am looking for a few friends who I can cheer on and who can cheer me on when things are good and encourage me when I'm struggling. This seems awfully forward, but I'm not exactly certain how to go about this kind of thing...

    I hope to have a picture up soon, but here's an overall: I'm 36 and have a three and a half year old daughter. I've been happily married for almost eight years. We have lived in Nashville for the last eight years, but are currently transitioning; we may be moving to Denver. (My daughter and I are in Denver currently, waiting to hear if my husband is going to land the job he's applying for). I love to run, but feel like I'm starting over in Denver. I went for a 2.5 mile run today and was left gasping for breath. Sheesh.

    Enough for now. Again, congratulations and keep up the excellent work.
    Trish
