in Introduce Yourself
Hi Everyone, Newbie alert! My very best friend said I NEEDED to try this community out. So . . . . hello world. My name is Julie or more commonly know as Mom is smaller circles. I have 3 beautiful boys, one of which is my oldest Alexander. He has been very supportive in the "Get Healthy" new me. He is my fitness buddy and cheers me on when I just want to give up. I am looking or serious supporters that I can exchange helpful tips with and sometimes just allow me to get on the gripe train before they help me refocuse on my ultimate goal . . . which is feeling good and look hot.

On a serious note. Recently my doctor told my my thyroid is not behaving. I tried the meds . . . noticed unpleasent side effects. . . and am hoping that dropping the pounds will help my thyroid keep up with the thinner new me.

Thanks for the welcome.

    Hi, there ..... and welcome to this little part of the world ....... great decision coming here !

    Sounds like your son is going to be your hero ..... you've gotta stay healthy for you AND your family ...... the calorie-counting is really cool ........ the app is helpful too ....... if you have questions or just want to vent, (most) people are helpful & encouraging ....... and if a grumpy-gus does show up, just skip over them :laugh:

    Have fun !
