New member/WISH ME LUCK

Just saying hello. My name is Suzanne and I am from Florida. I am 40 years old and have a five year old little girl. I have always been athletic and never really had to worry about my weight or what I was eating and drinking. I gained 55 lbs. during pregnancy, but lost sixty five after I had her. I breast fed for two years and was in pretty good shape and maintained my weight. I stopped breast feeding her on her 2nd birthday. She just turned five last week and I am now 40 lbs. heavier over the 3 yrs. I am super uncomfortable and none of my clothes fit. Also, I am the lead singer in a band and I stand out in front every night and feel like crap about how I look so that affects my singing. Unfortunately, my solution has been to consume alcohol to avoid these feelings during my performances. Not only does that backfire in almost every aspect of my life, it also hes contributed to my weight gain. SOOOO... this is why i decided to try this out. WISH ME LUCK!!!--Suzanne :smooched:
