Hello everyone. Please introduce yourself and let us all know what motivates you to be here. The more we know about each other and the more active we all are the better motivation we can be to one another, so please don't be shy!

    I am a 31 year old mom of 2. I have tried numerous times to lose weight and always seem to lose motivation when one little hurdle pops up and have such a hard time getting myself back on track. I am hoping to find like minded people who can help me get over those hurdles without completely derailing, and in turn I hope that I can be there for them as well.

    Mom of two, 24, 5'8", sw 165 cw 152 gw below 149. I have vacation in about two weeks to go see family and friends, they haven't seen me since I was pregnant! Hoping to get to goal weight before vacation time!
  • I totally understand. I have been trying to lose the same weight for who knows how long. I will do well and then around the third day, I'm done. I binge on everything I can get my hands on and have to start all over again. My goal is to lose at least 20 lbs. before September 27 because my family is going to Florida. I want to be able to wear shorts.

    I'm a married mom of 2 as well and I got down to my pre-pregnancy weight minus ten pounds within 2 months after having the baby.

    Then I went back to work, started grabbing breakfast on the way, lunching with co-workers, and put on 17 pounds in four months!

    So my current statistics are:

    Height: 5'2" (AND A HALF)
    Starting weight: 207
    Current weight: 205
    Goal weight: 190-195 by vacation time
    Ultimate goal weight: 115-120 like I was in college

    I leave for Great Britain and Spain in 40 days and would like to fit my 17 and a half inch bottom into a 17 inch airplane seat! Not to mention fit into my clothes and feel more comfortable. I know it's probably not realistic to expect to be under 190 (I'm 205 right now) but I bet I can drop 10 pounds in a month. I'm low-carbing it too, since it's the only thing that seems to control my cravings.
