New to site and needing motivation!

tauny78

Hi! My name is Tanya and I'm 33, a mother of 2, and I have been struggling with my weight since my first child was born 10 years ago. I need to lose about 60 - 70 pounds. I've done the research, I KNOW how to lose weight, it's just staying motivated that is my problem. Oh, and a lack of will power against sweets doesn't help either. Not to mention, I have a serious problem with low energy. I've been to the doctor for that, had tests run, and I'm healthy. So I guess I just need to deal with it and push through. I'm hoping that being a member here will finally help keep me motivated, and maybe making a few new friends who understand my issues would help too. So, give me a shout and say "hey, I know what ya mean." I'm going to really try this time, and yes, I know, I've said that before! But maybe, just maybe, this time is for real huh? I can hope!

Hey Tawyna....Did you write that post or did i??? It sounded like an echo going thru my computer.....man o man do i ever know what ya mean??? I had been dragging for a few months, went to doc, and like you had tests found out i'm pretty healthy for a 56 y.o. so whats my excuse now??? I lack energy becuz i am vitamin D insufficient, so i'm taking suplements now...
