Busy mom of 8 missing her "old self"

Hey everyone!

I'm Antoinette. I'm the mother of 8 (6 my birth) and I'm missing the "old me". Tomorrow is my 8th anniversary... I'm looking at the old pictures and I'm SOOO missing that part of me. **sexy**

I work on a job where I sit most of the day. Stress from the job always makes me want something sweet to eat. I'm finally serious about getting this weight back off and losing 25lbs. I'm looking for friends to help make this journey "fun" and not seem like a process. Wanna share stories, recipes, be there to lift you when your feeling down...etc... It's always good to have someone to converse with.

Please add me. The more the merrier.

    as a mom of 6 I know how easily you get lost in the mix of all that needs doing, but that is changing I realized I need me time to get fit for them, welcome and good luck on your journey

    omgosh you guys!! 7 and 8 kids, that's madness! I feel like I'd go nuts with my 2 sometimes LOL. Nonetheless, been trying for our 3rd for a year now with no luck!

    I also have eight, four boys and four girls. I started this journey because all of them are very athletic and I wanted to look like I belong with them!!!
