Hello all!

I am a SAHM to three boys, who range in age of 6, 5, and 4. They are my world.

I have been married for almost 7 years to the most amazing man, who loves me for me. He is very supportive.

I have always had issues with my weight. I never thought my weight was a real issue when I was younger, but since having my kids, I can't seem to take all of the extra weight off.

I did a program over a year ago, which helped me lose 30 lbs...but I didn't stick to it (and lost a lot of money) and ended up gaining the weight back.

So here I am. I am now fully commited to changing my life. I don't want to be the "fat mom"...I need to do this for me, so I can be around for my kids and show them what being healthy really means.
