My wife has only had two, but she got in better shape than she has after been on P90X. She is helping me on the path to fitness now. I have lost some weight but have also hit a plateau. I have found blogging helps keep me accountable. Let me know if I can help!!

I am so sorry that you are having a hard time! All you can do is take things day by day on this weight loss journey(and in life!). Feel free to friend me- I would love to offer you support. And never start thinking that you are nothing- I'm sure if you asked your children, they would say that you are EVERYTHING to them! Keep your chin up-you can do this!!!
