I'm a 36 year old Mom of a beautiful 10 year old daughter. I Gained 80 lbs while pregnant and never lost it. I eat when I'm board and I just keep eating till the bag is empty...not because I was hungry. My #1 goal for this month is to lose just enough to be able to buy myself a new pair of pants. Next goal is to lose 30 lbs for my first wedding anniversary in Sept. But my main goal is to lose 100 lbs before I turn 40. I want to be able to walk properly with no pain, I want to go up the stairs and not pass-out out of breath, to able to enjoy physical sports with my daughter and to feel sexy and comfortable in a bathing suits without covering myself.

    Hi Celine- I am 36 years old too and have a 10 year old daughter. I am struggling with a binge eating disorder which I need to get a grasp on before my daughter picks up my bad habit. I have always exercised but I will lose and gain the same 15 pounds over and over. I will send you a friend request.
  • Hi and good luck on your weight loss quest. This is an fantabulous site and so user friendly. There are great people on here who will help and push you along the way. Just make sure you find friends who are on the positive path and not the negative,

    Hi Celine, I had 93 to lose but have lost 20! I am sending you a friend request. We can journey together! I am 48 with 5 kids, ages 4-18. I have an 11 yo daughter (one 14 and one 15 too.) The boys are 4 and 18. I love MFP and had the best success ever losing weight. Stick with it and be as faithful as you can and IT WORKS. I have lost the 20 lbs in 3 months and I am not stopping! :)

    Welcome to MFP Celine!! I hope you grow to love it here as much as I have. The support and motivation I get from my MFPeeps is absolutely amazing. It's great to know that so many people understand what I'm going through, and will pick me up when I'm down or celebrate my small victories with me.
    Good Luck on your journey - you CAN DO IT!!
