                    I'm Barbara, 42, a mom of 3 (ages 19, 6, & 4), grandmother of 1, married for 22 years.  I've been in a slump since having my two little ones.  Hitting 40 with two babies, through me for a loop.  I have been trying to lose weight ever since I had my 4 year old.  Last March 2011, I weighed 278 lbs.  Im down to 256 lbs.  My brother introduced this site to me a couple days ago.  I love it!  That's all I can say.  I have never kept a journal of what I eat.  Now I do!  I have eaten healthy all week with structure and walking on my treadmill.  My little ones will be starting school in a few weeks and I hope to be joining a gym.  Joining a gym is going to be a big step for me, I guess feeling judged by others is my biggest thing. I hope I get an "A" for effort in the eyes of others.  Once I make that step forward I will be well on my way to where I want to be.  This will deffinetly be a journey and I pray for success.  I love the stories of everyone on here.  So inspiring.  I just can't get over all these people that are losing weight, keeping it off, and living life in a whole new way.  It's awesome!  I hope to meet some good people on here that will inspire me as well.
