Hi!! I don't know how to post my picture (sorry- computer stupid though my hubby is an IT major and works in the IT field)... sad! Yes! My journey consists of 40 pounds to lose this year... and not a diet, a new lifestyle. I don't view this as a temporary change but a new and complete change for good. I put this weight on due to meds along with bad habits and I want it off for good. It has taken a toll on my self esteem. Now I'm worried it will start to take a toll on my health if I don't do something about it soon. My grandmothers both developed diabetes at my age and weight which scares me. One of them died of heart disease at an early age and I too, have heart problems so I must take this weight thing seriously.

I am a stay at home mom of two 12 year old boys. Live in Iowa. Raised in a small town but live in the suburbs.

Other moms out there who are looking for support please send me a message. I can relate to tweens, fighting flab... and the ups/downs of weight gain.

Let's lose weight together!! The healthy way!!! :)
