in Introduce Yourself
Hi, my name is Renee. I just joined MFP along with 2 of my girlfriends. I am 46 and havent felt happy with my physique in years. The weight has packed on and I barely recognize myself.

I have 2 great stepchildren and I am a fulltime stepmom and homemaker. I am very active and I handle multiple tasks on a daily basis. So I ask myself, why I cant work "myself" into my busy schedule.

I just want to feel Pretty One More Time for myself. I have a great husband who supports and loves me, so wish me luck as I try to balance family, meals, activities and losing weight.

    I decided it was time to put myself first also...if you don't take care of you then who will?

    For some people (like me) it's safer to concentrate on someone else than on myself. I helped my hubby raise our (step) daughter & got him though nursing school, his BA & then his masters. A year after he finished (15 yrs together) he dumped me. Didn't find me attractive anymore. Neither did I. Now I have lost 35 lbs & back in school. If you don't take care of yourself or make time for yourself you can lose yourself. You are worth your time!!!
