Hi ya'll. I'm Jessica - trying to lose about 20 pounds, although I think my stretch goal would be 30 pounds. That would be my pre-baby weight!! I'm the mother of 3, my youngest just turned one.
I've been on South Beach before, which was okay, but I got horrible headaches this last time around and had to stop.
I'm combining my changes in eating with a goal of working out 5 times a week. I've worked out 4 times this week, so I'd say I'm on track.
I also work full-time and help my husband with another business. So anyone who says they don't have time to work out should walk in my pretty running shoes.
