Hey everyone! My name is Stacey and I just found this site a couple days ago. I'm a 26 year old stay at home mom of three; ages 9, 4 and 2. Over the years and with the pregnancies I've gained weight that I'd really like to lose! I've given weight loss several half-hearted tries, but am really trying to commit this time. I'm finding it to be a real struggle because before I had kids weight was NEVER an issue...I could eat whatever I wanted and never exercise...WHY CAN'T IT STILL BE THAT WAY?!? Anyways, I've got a ways to go and I'm hoping to find the support of people who understand what I'm going through because I don't really have anyone at home that can relate. I wish everyone luck with their own struggles and appreciate everyone's support with my own!
