Hey all! 50+ lbs to lose, could use some support.

Laurend224

I'm actually afraid to step on the scale, so I'm not quite sure how far I have to go. :-) After 3 kids, the baby factory has been shut down and I'd like to get back into the size 8 shorts I was wearing before my newest arrival. He'll be a year in February and it's time to say goodbye to all the extra insulation having kids has left me. I'm so glad to have found MFP and I hope to make this a new start and be a healthy example for my kids.

I am back at it today as well and I would like to lose 60 total. I too was afraid to step ont he scale this morning, I didn't want to get discouraged and quit right away so for the first month I am going by how my clothes fit (none fit right now). I am counting my calories and hitting the gym at least 3 times a week. I have 4 kids so I know exactly where you are ocming from!

I will be religiously journaling and also going by how my jeans fit. After my 4 year old was born, I went from 240 to 145ish, but I was on adipex and never bothered to develop healthy eating or exercising habits. (kicking myself now) Due to the price and an occasional psychotic breakdown ;-) and sleeplessness from the meds, I am vowing to make this a healthy lifestyle. Sure I can lose weight with adipex, but I value my marriage. = )

Hi Lauren-

Feel free to add me. I have been on this for about 6 months and will admit to a bit of slacking the last few. But I am back on board and so excited to kick it into gear again. I love MFP and I hope you do to.

Hey there Beautiful people!

I am 44 the mother of 2 wonderful GROWN sons and the wife to the most supportive and beautiful woman I know! So now you know 2 things about me...1. I'm old and 2. I'm Gay......neither should be an issue.

I just got back from a week long vacation on Daytona Beach...after my 2nd day there when I was tooo out of breath and too tired to walk on the beach with my Lavi's I knew THIS IS IT I have GOT to lose this weight for health reasons! I'm happy with me, but not happy with my health as a result of bing happy with me! This "I'll start on Monday" thing sucks and doesnt work cause Monday never comes!.......So I have a good 100+ lbs to lose, you support me, I'll support you and we'll ALL reach our goals!

Peace Out!

Ps my profile pic is me and my dear departed Momma; she's another reason I want to drop this weight. Momma had bad Diabetes and passed last year.
