MomTo5Wow

Hi All,

i am looking for friends, so feel free to add me !

My name is Jess, I am 32 yrs old and have 5 kids (11,7,5,3 and 5 months) I have pretty much always been over weight.... the fat kid, the chubby one, a little heavy!, and now I am the fat mom ! I had gestational diabete during 2 of my pregnancies and was told that i would be a full blown diabetic soon if I did not change my ways.....then just recently during routine blood work my liver enzymes were found to be elevated and an ultrasound and more blood work revealed I have fatty liver disease because of my obesity!

The starting plan is to lose 10 % of my body weight (20 lbs) with a strict low calorie, low carb, low fat life style! while doing 40 mionutes of cardo 4 days a week. I want more, I want to be around for my kids and not worry about anymore weight related medical issues. I want to get to a healthy weight for my height of 5'8.

I have played with diet fad .... low carb high fat and lost a ton but gained it back.... low calorie but never lost a thing!.....This is going to be a struggle but I am ready.

My Stats
Height 5'8
Starting weight 207.6 lbs
Dr Goal 185 lbs
Healthy Weight Goal 154 lbs
My Goal 140 lbs
