    Hi Shannon. I'd love to offer my support to you in your journey. I really think we can reach our goals.

    It's awesome that you have a Lily too. :)

    Hi, my name is Emma I am 37 and a single parent to my two lovely children Mollie (8) and Harrison (4). I too am seperated from my husband and will get divorced at some point. My weight loss journey originally started in July / Aug 2010 when I weighed 254lbs, by April 2011 I had lost 60lbs. Last summer my marriage ended and around then I lost focus with my weight loss and have since regained 20lbs. I joined MFP two weeks ago weighing 214lbs and have since lost a further 6.7lbs. My goal is to lose another 25lbs by August and then an additional 14lbs

    Feel free to add me as a friend and I wish you luck with your weight loss :)

    I will definitely add you, Emma. I wish you tons of luck in your weight loss endeavor. I hope I can offer you some support. I, too, gained weight when my marriage ended (about 10 lbs). I know we can do this. :)

    I am new here too. I would love to make some new friends to help on the journey. My name is Lee. I will celebrate my 20th wedding anniversary in July. I have 3 children. Two boys ages 16 and 12 and a daughter 7 years old. This is the message I sent to my friends today.
    :happy: Today, I am putting it out there for all the world to see. I am an over eater. I celebrate success with food, I drown my sorrows with food, I recover from boredom with food, I socialize through food( I know many of you have heard the word "let's do lunch" come out of my mouth.) Today, I am embarrassed to admit that I have hit an all time high of 256.8 lbs. I hope that by admitting this I will start seeing my self as over weight and unhealthy. By being mortified every time I see or talk to one of you that I will end the cycle. That at the age of 41 I WILL be the best Lee I can be.
