I am Angela.. I have 3 kids who all are over 18 now.. Um.. Divorced now trying to find me.. And omg... going to be 40 this June!!! Yes your math is right i was only 15 years old when i had my daughter.. then 16 when i got married the first time and then had my first son at 17... then my last at 20... I am about 110 pounds over weight and turning into my mom who I love dearly but always said I will never not take care of my self and be that heavy. Wake up call was this last Dec. When my mom and dad made me an offer. If i can lose 50 pounds they will get me Laptop.. but the wake up part is when we all weighed in and i was only 5 pounds less then my mom and 15 less then my dad.. a whole 248 pounds.. so I been trying to lose wight and now i way 143.. when i join this site.. i was 138.

My daughter is the one that got me on this site.. Thanks k... love ya. I have really like how it helps keep track of the food. Me and my daughter were talking today.. and one thing we figured out was that she loves food she over eats... while I don't eat enough.. half sandwich at lunch fills me up.... So my problem is i starving my body.. Sigh and now that it keeps telling me i not eating enough.. and i have gain 4 pounds in a week trying to eat healthier. I have it set to lose one pound a week.. so any help on that would be appreciated.

My goal for myself.. is not to be on a diet, diet is the wrong word it imply something short or a quick fix. I want a life so I say I am not on a diet but i am working on a life style change. To eat healthier make the right choices on what i am eating and how i am taking care of my self. I know I will never be in a 7 like i was before i had my daughter.. I just want to be healthy and happy.. and a whole bunch lighter....
