    Hi Robin!

    My name is Celia, I am a wife and SAHM to 2 kiddos as well. I would love to keep each other accountable along with anyone else who signs up. I am doing GREAT physically, in just 8 weeks I've built up to a solid 2 mile run and I exercise vigorously 4-5x a week. I am struggling BIG TIME with my food choices and in take, I am working on it..... maybe I just need that "extra" help/motivation.
  • I'm in! I am married with 3 girls, Meagan (15), Dana (3) and Sara (8 months).

    Does it count if I'm a mom, who doesn't have to take care of kids anymore (moved out) and I no longer have 50+ lbs to loose, but I did have that much to loose at one time. Would love some support though and give support too.

    Hi everyone!! I'm married with 2 (5 1/2 and 4 years old) kids. I also work part time so finding time and energy to work out is so difficult.

    I'm a 26 (for a few more months!) year old wife, student, and mom of 2 kiddos. My son is 5, and my daughter is 3.

    When I started, I had 50lbs to lose. I'm down 13, and anxious to kiss those last 37lbs goodbye!

    Good Morning everyone!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I had to get up WAY to early this morning! I have another busy day today and Im wishing I could crawl back into bed!
    I guess I will tel a little about myself: Im a 26 year old wife of Jody and Mom to Mckenzie who is 9 and Cody who s 6 (yes we started young). We live in a small town in Oklahoma. I have been trying to lose this weight for about 6 years but never really stuck to anything. I a hoping with all of the support I will stick to this!!!!!
    So is everyone just counting calories or are any on different diets? How are you losing weight? Whats working for you? I would love to hear suggestions!

    Staring tomorrow I will start a new post eveyday and call it Mom's losing 50+, is that ok with everyone?
