I'm looking for friends to help motivate and keep ourselves on track to losing this weight! I'm a 43 year old SAHM of 4 year old twin boys and I've got 70 lbs to lose. All my "real life" friends are skinny so they don't have a clue to what I'm going through!


:flowerforyou: No special groups or anything fancy...let's just become MFP friends and we can keep tabs through updates and messages! If you're in....send me a message, send me a friend request, or reply on this post and let's go! :bigsmile:
