Hey y’all…My name is Melissa and I am a 35 yo SAHM. My son just turned 4 on 22Sep. I was not in the greatest shape when I became pregnant and then I gained an extra 50 lbs during my pregnancy. Shortly after giving birth, I had lost 30 lbs (amazing, right?) and then it came back with a vengeance! I not only gained back that 30 lbs but an additional 30 lbs! I was at my all-time highest weight and SUPER unhealthy and I just didn’t have the ambition to change anything. It wasn’t until I started getting sick every time I turned around. In one year I would say that I was sick at least 10 times. It was awful! So I was literally sick and tired of being sick and tired. I have been on my journey for over a year now and have lost 40 lbs so far. I have another 100 lbs to lose but you know what? I guess it’s really not about just the number on the scale, it’s about how I FEEL, how my clothes FIT, and how I look in pictures. Those are better measurements of success than numbers on a scale, right? So I have goals now and I am working towards them! And I am looking for other friends who are inspired and motivated by living a healthier lifestyle and making forever changes in their life!
