I have been way overweight for almost 18 years. My youngest child just turned 17 and I was overweight when I got pregnant with him. I have tried to lose in the past, without much success. I feel like this time will be different. I need to lose for health reasons, and because I am not happy being this much overweight. I got started with myfitnesspal while at the beach early this summer, but just started taking it serious about two weeks ago. So far I have been trying to be very faithful in listing my foods and excercise(which is really non-existent) and I've lost 12 lbs. I am praying that I can keep it going this time, for me, my husband and my kids:heart: .
