Co worker told me about the site.

Lots of things have brought me to being over weight, Deathof my parents and a baby have taken me from a healthy strong body to well just overweight and not feeling pretty. I do remember when I was thinner and energetic and used to get attention from men. Now not even a second look. Iused to enjoy exersize and weight training. I felt good and had fun. Why now does it seem so daunting of a task? I have a supportive husband and a wonderful 3yr old son. Who would also beneift from a healthier mommy.
I guessyou have to start somewhere and I have to find something that I will stick to.

  • Hi! I started at the beginning of the year and I feel like it's the best thing I've ever done (after MANY failed dieting attempts). My advice-log your food EVERY DAY, even if you know you went over your calories. It keeps you honest and focused.
  • hey... I am invisible to men too.... sucks. :( AND also have an awesome 3 year old son and husband!! :)

    Sorry to hear about your parents... :(
