My name is Ellice, I am an unemployed teacher, turned stay at home mom. I have two wonderful kids Laurana who is 3, and Jareth who is 1. I have struggled with my weight my whole life. It is the one thing my mother and I have fought about more than any other. being an ex-cheerleading captain, she has said some pretty mean things about my weight. When I got married 7 years ago I lost 70 lbs on Weight watchers. I spent the time and the money and had no kids at home to busy my day and distract me. I gained most of it back with my first pregnancy that ended at 33 weeks with a still birth. I gained a lot of weight after that, add two healthy pregnancies and I have pretty much undone all the work.
Since we now struggle with money in these hard times, It is nice to find a nice free way to keep track of diet and exercise. I am hoping that with encouragement, prayer, and support I can lose the extra weight. This is probably way more information than you needed. I was hoping this group would be a good encouragement.
