Need to do something TODAY!!!

Hello Everyone,

I have had the myfitnesspal app in my iPod for months and have started & stopped maybe 10 times. I get a burst of motivation and then allow others to convince me it's harder than it really is. I also let other things in my life distract me from trying harder to stick with it.

I am a mother of 3, a wife, student and fulltime working woman. So, I am always busy & pretty much exhausted. But, these I do not feel are good enough reasons to just give up and let myself go. My overall goal in being healthy is to set a good/positive example for my kids, more importantly my daughters.

So, this time around I am not going to give up and will do my VERY best to keep my word. I will pick myself up and dust myself off even on the worst of days and keep going. I welcome anyone to comment and let me know how you are doing and we can or could help eachother.

I weigh 205 lbs. and I am 5'2. It's been almost 3 years since I had my last child, so none of this is still from carrying a baby. My goal is to be able climb a flight of stairs without feeling as if my heart will burst and chase after my 2 1/2 year old without worrying I will hurt myself because I have bad knees and my weight puts to much strain on them.

I am ready to no longer feel guilty for being hungry and I am ready to eat to nourish my body!!!!! Not continue to eat for taste or to feel better about something.

Sorry if I am ranting but this is how I roll. I am an open book so feel free to ask me anything.

I CAN DO THIS AND I WILL!!!

From one fellow ranter to another, go for it!

I am a 5'2" working mom. I've been working out for a couple of years and have lost 35+ lbs. Probably could have been more but I LOVE my food.

I started losing weight when people kept asking me when I was due. At the time, my youngest was in kindergarten. As annoyed as I was, I understand their point now when I look back at older pictures.


Feel free to rant. It burns calories!
