So I joined this site a few weeks back after stumbling on it by mistake. So far to date I've lost 14lbs...35 to go!

A little about me...I'm a single mom to a beautiful terrible 2. I say single because I'm not married and my boyfriend is not my daughter's father--even though he treats her like his own. When I met my boyfriend I was at 135lbs and I felt wonderful. Smallest I had ever been in my whole life! As the months past I noticed my size 8's weren't fitting anymore...heck my size 10's weren't either. I have ballooned up to 194 and now I'm back down to 180. We are getting ready to hit our 2 year anniversary and I want to feel confident. I know I won't drop to 145 overnight, but I'm hoping to be 10lbs lighter by the end of April.

I drink tons of water--workout 5-6 days a week. 3 early morning Spin classes plus 3 additional days of cardio/weights. I've been tracking my calorie intake every day for every meal and I'm in love with how easy this site is!

Looking forward to the long road ahead!

    Congratulations on your choice to better your life!

    Eat well, and track your calories, weigh yourself weekly (although I admit--I weigh daily! :embarassed: ) and measure, measure, MEASURE your body parts!

    If you like to read inspiring blogs, take a look at mine :wink: located here at MFP (the address is in my signature).

    Friend me, if you like. :smile: I am always here to listen and support! :flowerforyou:
