Hello

adamsonam

My name is Amanda and I'm new. Been on the site a week now and already lost 2.2lbs. I am a single mom and I just turned 30 and decided that I need to change my life. My 3 year old daughter is my biggest motivation. I wanna be a good role model for her and I can't very well be that when I am setting such a bad example. I have been too complacent and have had no will power but maybe this will help me finally turn things around. I have battled my weight all my life and have gone to drastic lengths to try to lose it. Even when I could lose it, it would find it's way back to me with another 10-20lbs. The cycle has to end, for my health, and for my daughter!
