    Hello,

    I am a returning person. I am more committed now and using a personal trainer to provide me with motivation when times are tough. I have tried a lot of things on my own and I usually lose motivation after about 2 months and I am hoping to try and gain friends here and using a personal trainer to keep pushing me to stay motivated so I can reach my goals. Every bit of support helps right? Add me as well

    Hello, my name is Lindsey and I am 28. In the past five years I have had two kids and my thyroid shut down on me. I have had a hard time regulating my thyroid and keeping motivated to lose weight. My next option is weight loss surgery that scares the hell out of me but it’s my last resort if I can’t do this on my own. I am a single mother of a 5 year old girl and a 2 year old boy and I weigh over 300lbs. I want and need to lose weight so that I can take care of my kids and be active with them as well. I need to be healthier but I need support from others in the same situations. Wish you all luck in meeting your goals as I know it’s not easy.

    Welcome, this is my second time using MFP. The first time I got discouraged after losing a few pounds and then I couldnt lose any more. I didnt have friends the first time but I am giving it another try and making more friends. You can add me if you would like and anyone else can add me too.

    I so hear you on living with a skinny guy who can eat anything! My DH weighs 137 and eats what he likes (though I do cook healthy meals). My goal is weigh something close to him!

    And while I have had 4 kids, people have asked me more times than I care to admit if I am pregnant - nothing worse (though I do have that shape, but really people should keep their mouths shut!).

    Feel free to add me on this journey to get fit!
