Hi, ladies...

AmberCHM

I'm excited to be a part of a supportive group of ladies. I've been a member of a few groups here on MFP that have kind of fizzled out, so I'm looking forward to the support that is sure to be present here.

I'm 26 (nearly 27), wife and mom of boy/girl twins. I've been married to my super sweet, super supportive hubby for almost 5 years and our twins will be 2 in a couple of weeks.

Here's a blog post I did a while back kind of telling my weight loss story, if you're interested: http://craftyhealthymommy.blogspot.com/2012/05/losing-it.html

And here are quite a few "before & after" pictures I posted in October, if you're interested: http://craftyhealthymommy.blogspot.com/2012/10/before-aftersan-emotional-roller-coaster.html

And some stats:
5'7"
HW: 286
MFP SW: 257
CW: 168
UGW: 143 (half of my HW)

My largest size was a 24 and I'm currently a 10 in most things. My goal is a size 8. I want to be a single digit size so badly!

I'm down about 118 lbs from my HW, 89 lbs since starting MFP in June 2011, and about 25 lbs away from my UGW. I was quite the slacker the last half of 2012, so I'm hoping to get serious about losing again in 2013 and see that size 8 before the end of the year

Thanks for inviting me to join your group. I'm looking forward to getting to know all of you!
