Hello all. I'm a 31 year old wife, mother of 3, and student and I can't seem to get my health in control. I'm a nursing and biology major and I know what I need to do to lose the weight, but I lack the motivation and drive to do it. I've packed on about 40 pounds in the last couple years. I've always been overweight and was successful in losing weight back in 2005 using the South Beach Diet. I lost 40 pounds and was able to keep it off for 2 years. Then we moved back to our hometown close to our friends and relatives and the weight crept back on, especially during holidays and other celebrations. Now I'm at my heaviest weight ever and am desparate to lose the added weight and then some. I am finding that I can't do this on my own and could use a few friends through this.

    I sent you a request. I have about the same amount to lose as you. I started just about 2 weeks ago.

    Thank you! This should be helpful for me. I see you've lost a good bit already. That's awesome!
