Hi ya everyone!!
I just stumbled onto this message board... and I'm not even sure how I found it...lol Anywho, I'm glad I did :bigsmile:
I'm Mary and I am from the metro Atlanta area in GA... I'm 5'3 and 146 and have struggled with my weight as an adult. I carry all of my weight in my middle which according to Dr. OZ is the worst. GREAT! I was down to about 135ish about a year ago when I got married. I recently quit my job working as a case manager in a 90 day treatment center that took a major toll on my mental and physical health! I'm happy to report I an working as a pre-school teacher again and MUCH happier! Now it's time to get back into the habit of getting healthier! My husband just ran his 2nd 1/2 marathon and I was in the bed and realized what a slacker I have been and how I ALWAYS have an excuse of why I'm not eating better or working out. :grumble: I'd like to eventually get pregnant and wanna get healthy before I do!
Well I'm so thankful for all of you and look forward to getting to know you better over the next few months!0 -

About Me
I am 33 years old and I have struggled with my weight my entire life. At high school I weighed 150, after my first childed I pushed 185 after my 2nd went well over 200. When my daughter turned 18 months I had went down to 183 and figured that If I had a tummy tuck I would loose weight and keep it off. After all $12,000 is alot of money and who in their right mind re-gain after spending all that money? "ME" after loosing 40 lbs and looking hot. I gained all the weight back in less than a year and maintained a wooping 200 plus for 5 years after Isn't that insane!
I have two lovely children a son 17yrs old and a daughter 9yrs old. I am engaged to a wonderful man that has finally decided to join me in this weight loss journey. I joined MFP to help me keep on track and to stay motivated with a community that has the same goals as me...TO BE HEALTHY.
Why I Want To Get In Shape
It is time for a change...I am not getting any younger. My mother started having health issues at 34 and I refuse to get ill. I want to have energy for my children and foremost my future grandkids. Fitting into my old jeans or wearing a 2 pc bikini would be a plus but to feel energized, healthy and free of disease would be priceless.

hi
My name is amber and sometimes I feel like the only thing that I am doing right is getting myself healthy. But anywho I wouldn't trde it for the world. That was by far the best decision ever. I have about 50 pounds to go. I live in Friendswood, texas. I am a nanny but will definitely be switching careers soon. I am losing weight so that I can continue to create a positive attitude and inspire others on their journey. I can't wait until this challenge officially begins.0 -

Hello Brown Team
Thanks for having me as a member. My name is Denise and I am 40 yrs old. I have a very supportive husband and two very active children. I am very pumped about being a part of this group. THank u all for letting me be a part of ur team=)
I would love to be under 200 lbs by the time the challenge is over with maybe less. I will just take it one day at a time and push push push! That is the only way to go! I have not been under 200 lbs in who knows how long. I can not wait to be in ONE derland! That will be an amazing feeling. I am just so excited. I have OCD and sometimes that really keeps me motivated as well. I figure I start something I guess I need to finish it!
WE CAN DO THIS!
GO BROWN TEAM!
