My name is Jesi, I am 27 yrs old. I have been married to my best friends for a little over 2 years. I am in my second year of college at Ashford University Online working toward my Bachelor's Degree in Sociology. I have 2 amazing children Aiden Tyler, she will be six in Sept. and Alexander Lee, he will be 2 next month.

During my second pregnancy I was diagnosed with Gestational Diabetes -AFTER- my son was born! I put on a lot of weight that I am still trying to get off. i am only 3 lbs away from pre-pregnancy weight but I was over weight to begin with.

I have recently become obsessed with Zumba Fitness, which I do twice a week at a local gym with some co-workers. It is SOO much fun but is not enough to impact my weight issue.

I have no support system when it comes to losing weight. My husband is one of those people who can eat anything he wants and it never affects him, so he does not feel the need to diet and my kids, well they are kids and VERY picky.

I am hoping to meet new people with the same goals in mind to keep me on the right track!

I am done being a fat girl!!!! I will lose weight!!! :happy:

I am pretty much an open book so if you want to know something feel free to ask!
