Hello all, I'm new to MFP. I've been using www.livestrong.com since January and got fed up with how slow it was, so I moved over here!

I'm a 26 y/o Mom of two boys, and I gained a lot of weight while I was trying to finish my undergrad while being a wife and Mom. I've pretty much always struggled with my weight, but I had ballooned to the point of being dangerously obese.

I started my weight loss journey last August 2008 (in my last semester of school!), and have dropped 55 lbs. with counting calories and exercise. I'm in the last 10-15 lbs. stage at this point. Look forward to getting to know everyone :smile:
