My Introduction

Options
Hi everyone, I am a 30 year old mom of 2. I have been overweight sincethe birth of my first child at age 16. In the recent year I have overcome major obstacles that I never would have thought possible. Now I am ready to embrace the challenge to become healthy and fit. I have done every diet out there, including giving myself daily injections. Some worked for awhile, but ultimately I became bored and quit. This will be the first time I included exercise - so I know that alone will help. Add some healthy eating and I'll have a nice recipe for success..:flowerforyou:

    I am 45 and I refused to change anything about my great life. I tried Portions, Nutirsystem and I failed miserably. The difference this time is that I have great "friends" to help me get through. These friends will help you too. I am going to succeed and I know that you can too.
