My name is Ashlei. I'm married and have 3 boys (one 4 year old and 2 year old set of twins). I have a lot of stress in my life and trying to change my eating habits. I know all the things I need to do, but I lack the motivation and time to do it. The only time I have to focus on myself is when I'm taking a shower or sleeping...I know that's SAD! I need someone and something to hold me accountable for my actions...so I came accross this, My Fitness Pal. I hope this works because, honestly, I dont have any other choice. I need friends...PLEASE!!! I need friends who will push me (but not too hard) to keep me going on the right path. I have almost 100 lbs to lose so this wont be quick or easy!

Constructive criticisms are welcome :smile:
