    Hi, my name is Cassandra. I have been dieting now for about 2 months straight now. I too have been doing yoyo dieting for several years now. I have lost a total of 20 pounds now and would like to lose a total of 100 pounds. I have learned that its a slow process that cannot be rushed. I have 5 kids. 4 boys and 1 little girl. I live an extremely active life. I am always looking for new friends to add.

    Like you, I have been yo-yoing for years. I didn't really realize just how big I had gotten until I saw some candid photos. It was like a kick in the pants. Now I am serious about losing weight. Using MFP has been very easy. Seeing the nutritional values of what I eat has made me really change my eating habits. I've lost 12 pounds so far. I have over 100 to go. You can add me as a friend if you like.
