Starting Over

Hey guys so I"m officially tired of being overweight. I have been overweight my whole life and it's time for a change. I'm a 25 year old single mother of 2 wonderful kids, whom seems to always be going,going,going. I really want to be healthy for my kids and be around for them when they get older. So time for a change. I'm about 5'' 7 and weight in at about 273 which is my heaviest EVER. I could really use some motivation and maybe some friends. I'm starting the change to my new life tomorrow on Dec. 1,2012 and I can't wait.

    Great job making that decision to start this healthy lifestyle journey. My heaviest wt. was 325, but I was 304 when I started this last time. I am down to 200 now. I know that you can do this. Having friends can really help keep you motivated and supported. Please feel free to add me.
