    Hi Summer, and welcome. I'm so sorry about your mom, I understand how you feel. My mom passed away of cancer in Nov. of 2004, and not a day goes by that I don't miss her and wish she was here.
    There are a lot of friendly and supportive people on this site, and help and advice are here when you need it. You can do it, and you'll be back in those cute clothes before you know it!:flowerforyou:

    Welcome, Gator fan! I'm an ex-Gator. We won't discuss how long ago it was.

    The "Hey ya'll" got me to take a look . I knew that was a southern woman! Good luck to you on your journey. :glasses:

    Welcome from you sista in So Fl!!!

    You can do this. Log all your food...every morsel even when you over ate. It gives you an eyeopener of what you are putting in your body.

    Drink water ( I know Fitness Chick will be along later with more on THAT!!)

    Add some exercise into your day. Dont over do it....20-30 min to start. Walk, bike, or buy a DVD. You will be happy you did!!

    Good luck!:flowerforyou:
