Hi, guys! My name is Marie. I am not new to MFP, but I have a short list of inactive friends. I would really like to make some new ones that come on every day who I will help encourage as they encourage me. I am (finally) halfway through my weight loss goal. I started in December and have lost 46 pounds. I still have another 35-45 to go. I did really well during the first part of the year, but I've only lost 10 pounds during my whole summer vacation. I am a teacher and a grad student, so I am very busy during the school year, which is why it was a lot easier to stick to my plan. All summer, I have been home with my two little boys and too much temptation. I am so discouraged because my trainer and I had originally made my goal by my 27th birthday on Halloween. I don't see that happening now, but I would like to get close, maybe by Christmas. It would be nice to have some active buds to help support me. I don't get much support from my hubby beyond the (very) occasional "good job." I don't want to give up, but I keep sabotaging myself; thus why I have only lost 10 pounds the past 3 months.

Stats:
5'0 - darn height makes this harder than ever!

SW: 207.2
CW: 160.8
GW: 125
UGW: 115

Thanks in advance! :)

    Yeah! From zero to three friends in 10 minutes! I've been stuck at the same weight for a month or so. So, I'm happy to see how everyone is doing. Anyone feel free to add me...it will give me more reason to log in.
