Hi! your going to get alot of support from mfp people. Joining this website is one of the best things you could have done. It keeps you motivated and by logging what you eat you feel more in control of what you put into your body. The next step is 2 get some exercise in each day. Maybe you could start taking walks or get a workout Dvd to get started. I wish you the best of luck on your journey

You may not realize how many calories you burn just being a busy mom! You should look at the exercise data base and see what hours of housework, climbing stairs, etc. will burn. I was surprised! When I spend half of a day outside working in the yard - I get to splurge on something BIG. And I can continue to maintain. It isn't necessary to go to the gym, or do a structured workout every day. That's one of the things you'll LOVE about this site. Welcome!!!
