Trying something new

SaraSatin

Hello! I'm Sara, a 30 year old mom of 3 girls who is about to move to Nashville, TN in a few weeks. After having my twins I went back to Weight Watchers but find that for some reason it just isn't fitting with my lifestyle this time around. I'm giving this a try after MANY friends said that this was working amazingly well for them. I hope I can get as much out of these message boards as they have been.

Other things about me: I have a second degree black belt but haven't really used it since I earned it. I hurt myself during my test and once I was healed I was pregnant with my oldest and lived 30-40 minutes from the studio so it was too hard to get there. Life has taken me away from it but I've got my stand up punching bag ready to be set up at the new house so I can build my skills back up. I also walked the Susan G. Komen 3 Day walk while I was 12 weeks pregnant with the twins last year. Everyone thought I was nuts. I am hoping to get myself into good enough physical shape that I can walk again in 2013 (when my husband thinks he'll be able to handle all 3 alone) and finish all 60 miles. I did 33 last time, 11 a day before I got on a van and under orders by my doctor had my blood sugar and blood pressure checked each day.

Still adjusting to all of this but I managed to eat exactly what I was supposed to on my first day. We'll see how this goes!

Any other twin moms, moms of lots of young children (my girls are 3 yrs, and almost 6mths), Jewish families, families in Nashville who want weekend playdates... or anyone else who just wants someone to be accountable with. I'd love a big support network AND new friends!

Also wanted to add that if there is anyone out there who is particularly good at stalking someone's journal and helping them find better ways to eat I would appreciate that!

Hi, I'm a Nashvillian too. My kids are almost adults now, so no playdates, but I'm an excellent diary stalker. I'm a new runner, working my way through a running program and signed up for my first race later this month - the Nashville Zombie Buffet 5K. Feel free to add me for support. :happy:

Thanks! The more the merrier in my opinion!

So, I'm guessing at some point they start sleeping through the night... right? LOL
