New to my lifestyle transformation & need friends/support!!!

Hi! I am a 33 year old mother of three! I have been married to my husband for 15 years now! My children are ages 11, 12 and 16... and always on the go!

I have had some female health issues over the years, and last year had surgery to help with that! Now I am trying to get my life, and my family, back on track to being healthy!

My husband began counting calories about three weeks ago and has lost 28 lbs to date! I started 1 1/2 week ago, and have lost 14 lbs to date! I am trying to schedule time for exercise, which is nearly impossible at my house! However, I think it is catching on! My two youngest kids LOVE working out with me!!! And I have started walking during my lunch at work!

Weight loss is a difficult thing for me! I am probably what you could call an emotional eater! That is a hard thing to overcome! I downloaded the MyFitnessPal app on my phone and love it! I do better if I can actually keep track of and SEE what I am doing!

I am currently 5'11'' and weight 315 lbs. I have let myself go over the years! We were eating out alot, and eating late! Those are probably my two biggest problems! Then when I went to work after my kids were all in school... the pounds added up fast! Between our lifestyle and the health issues I was dealing with... it was out of control!

I am in this for the long haul! My goal is to get back to 200 lbs! Not sure how long that will take... but I'm on my way!

Wishing you all lots of success! Hope to be able to make some good connections on here and have some loyal support! I know this is nearly impossible to do on your own!!! I am happy to know that my family is in this with me! But... sometimes, I think we all need to talk to different people to keep our motivation and spirit up!

Good luck in your journey!
