Hi everyone! My name is Danielle. I'm a 28 y/o wife and mother to 3 beautiful kiddos. Our family is complete and I am looking forward to finally getting back into decent shape. Before my first pregnancy I weighed 135lbs. I know my body dynamic is different and I'm hoping to get back to 150lbs. I am currently 213.6lbs and 5'5".

I served 9 years in the US Air Force before separating. I am now a Civil Service employee doing the same job I did active duty, but now I have to actually think about what to wear to work every day. lol ;)

I hope to make lots of great friends and to look towards you all for motivation and accountability!!
