in Introduce Yourself
Hello all, my name is Amber. I am newer to fitnesspal but not new to trying to lose weight. I am a 35 year old momma who works rotating shifts as a dispatcher. I am getting married to my Rock in a little over a month. We have made it through his 15 month deployment, my son having cancer and 2 liver transplants, and our killer schedules...and now we are tying the knot! I want to get in better shape and lose weight to be a better example to my kids and to be as active as my man is. I don't want to live life on the sideline anymore!
Please feel free to add me as a friend and give motivation, support, and butt kickings as needed...and I promise to do the same!!
:-) Amber

    Thanks!! Yes, Jaxon was diagnosed when he was 2 1/2 and went through 12 rounds of chemo and 2 liver transplants, but he is 7 now and is a real blessing! I am getting used to the quiet after the storm.
    Thanks for the add!

    You & Heather are amazing, I have a four year old daughter & can't think of bad stuff happening to her without tearing up.
