100 Pounds plus to lose- New friends and support

Hi everyone! I have been here for a while, but I lost my mom recently and completely fell off the weight loss wagon! Today I am starting from scratch with 127 pounds to lose to meet my goal weight. I am very busy- married, three kids, full-time job, and college student, but I HAVE to make time to get healthy! My body is hurting and stiff and as of this morning I weigh more than I even did while pregnant! I don't want my kids to lose their mom early. Losing mine at 33 has been hard enough! Looking for friends with a large amount of weight to lose or for friends who have lost a significant amount of weight for motivation. Just send me a request:) I really want to do this!

  • Just read your intro. I am so sorry for your loss. I added you to my friend list. I am new to MFP and I have 80 lbs to lose. My story is pretty much like yours but I have to do something. I am hoping that reaching out to others will help me stay on track. I will start blogging this evening and start posting pictures too. We can do this!

    Thanks for all the support! It's hard to keep in mind, but LIFE HAPPENS! No matter what is going on around us, being fat isn't making it better! I really need to keep thinking this in those tough times.
