in Introduce Yourself
I'm new here. I've got ALOT of weight to lose but am going ton do it slowly. I hate to think that I'm so big that I cant play with my son like other moms (who are thinner). I hate that I cant run with him and dont want to play games outside because I get worn out. I also wanna be a HOT MOMMA for my love. I can do this. Slowly but surely. I got a Y membership so hopefully that'll help (since it's winter).

    Good luck to you. I'm a mom, too, & I've been on this site for @2 weeks. It has really helped me to be focused first thing every morning. I have 20 pounds to lose to get to a satisfied me...but 30 for the "Oh my goodness...is that really her?" category!

    Again, good luck. Thoughts are prayers & although I don't know you...I'll send you my vibe!

    Hi Amber, glad to see you here.
    I think you will find that you are surrounded by friends here. We have all started with the same goal of weight to lose, but I think we also come with a lot of weight on our shoulders and sometimes feel bad about ourselves. And you know, we shouldn't. Don't be hard on yourself, your here, you have found great tools that will help keep you focused and motiviated, but especially found a lot of people who can understand what a struggle it is to get going. I like to compare myself to the little train that could and just keep puffing away and every day it gets a little easier. Slow and steady.
    Keep the faith, A good mother is not defined by running around the playground, take care of yourself for yourself and the rest will follow

    nat :flowerforyou:
