    :flowerforyou: Morning everyone! My name is Missi and I am a proud mama of a beautiful 4 year old and a 14year old step son. I work full time and am also currently a full time student. I am sad to say that I just started my journey last week at a touch over 300lbs, but plan on changing that! Looking to lose about 120-140lbs. I've never been not overweight, and would like to set a good example for my little one (she is not overweight and is very active, definitely much different than I was when I was that small!). Lets do this ladies!

    Hi! I'm Katie. I'm 29 years old and a married mother of two girls ages 4 and 2! I also work full time as a speech-language pathologist in an elementary school. i just started MFP and would like to lose around 100 pounds. I have always been overweight -- I want to be healthy but also set a good example for my daughters. I want to make sure they don't struggle with their weight as I always have. We can do it!! :)

    Hi, my name is Melitta, and I have a 3-year old son. I just started a week ago, and I am serious this time. :) My husband is away until end February so that gives me 8 weeks, and I want to get a good chunk of weight out of the way in these 8 weeks.

    My biggest challenge is to incorporate exercise in my life,especially while my husband is away. So I started doing the Nike Training Club at home and putting munchkin in front of a acrtoon. He seems to be more interested in my exercise videos, and wants to help me. Bring me the weights, presses the play button, etc.

    Week 1 was good, onto week 2, and really looking forward to some encouragement - I usually drop out after about 3 weeks and 3 kg.

    Hello, I'm Kellie! I'm a 21 year old newlywed with a 6.5 month old baby boy (: My goal is to lose about 35 lbs more than what I've already lost, and I want to gain muscle! So I guess my goal would actually be that I want to lose FAT, not necessarily a huge amount of WEIGHT. (:

    Hi, my name is Amazing-Grace. I am 31yrs old and mom to my beautiful very busy 13mth old daughter. My goal is to remain healthy and lose some stubborn baby pounds while at it. I am currently doing P90X and taking boxing classes in the middle of work and nursing school. We all need encouragement and this weight loss journey is not an easy one.

    Hi, I am Debbie. I am 39 Years Old, Married, 3 daughters’, 1 grand-daughter and a son-in-law. I work a sedentary job and have never been very physically active. I currently weigh 171 lbs and would like to lose about 40 lbs but would be happy with 30 lbs. I am working with an underactive thyroid and low iron, which give me low energy. I have also been told yesterday by my doctor that my cholesterol is high and that I must exercise. So now my goal is to incorporate foods that help with my energy level, help me lose weight and lower my cholesterol. I am starting with low impact moderate exercise that I plan to increase as my energy levels increase. Good luck to everyone and my hope is that this group will provide motivation for me.
