Hi All~ My name is Ashley. I lost 90 pounds 10 years ago using a very popular point system. Kept it off for 2 years and then had four children in 5 years. Well unfortunately I have gained all but 20 back. So now I figured I would use this. I know several people who have had great success. I am looking forward to regaining my old self back and getting rid of this excess weight off

    After I had my second baby, almost 2 years ago, I lost all the baby weight and some extra in about 6 months and in the next six I put it ALL back. I ended up weighing what I did the day I went to the hospital for childbirth. I can't carry that much weight in my body without the pleasure of baby kicks inside of me so, here I am, getting rid of the lbs for good!! Good luck!!
  • Best of luck with it all. Everyone here is so great and very helpful.

  • Hi my name is Lynsey. I have been inactive for over 6 years now and have been at my worst. I have had criticism from my man and from others, but I feel like there is no way to do anything anymore. I feel unmotivated sometimes and I just want to be back to a healthy range for my size. I weight 196 and am 5'4''. I am ashamed but have owned up to it to make a change. I need help though and motivation from someone to help keep it up.
