Need Friends to Help Motivate me....

Hi... My name is La'Shawn. I live in West Palm Beach, FL. I'm a 33 year old mother of three beautiful daughters. I work fulltime as a nurse & I'm also currently trying to go back to school to further my education. I'd never struggled with weight issues, until about 5 years after I got pregnant with my third daughter, I put on alot of weight & have not been able to get the pounds off. Maybe because I always put everyone & everything else first, such as my kids, my fiance & my job. But as of yesterday I joined this website & have decided it's time that I focus time & energy on me, so that I can lose weight & feel better about myself. I have the love & support of my fiance & my daughters & I love them for that! But at home I'm the only one that's over weight. So therefore, at times I feel like my family can't possibly fully understand my struggles or how I feel, because they're not going thru the same situation. I currently need to lose about 80 - 100lbs. I know it's not gonna be easy & that I wont lose the weight overnight. That's why I need all the help, support, motivation, encouraging words & etc. that I can get in order to reach my fitness goals.
