Hi!

My name is Annie and I am from Iowa. I just started this site last week on the recommendation from a friend, and I like how easy it is to navigate. Also, it's helping me see all the little things that are adding up. It's nice to have a place to go for support!

    Hi Annie ,

    Im amy I have been on MFP since 2011 I was doing great dropped almost 50lbs. Then Mothers day weekend last year I spent in the hospital with my son and after that I got lazy and life got crazy. I have gained 10 of the 50lbs i lost back and I hate it so Im starting fresh. New Year new me and looking at everyone success stories help. I also helped that my husband told me I was looking really good and he loves me fat or skinny but he wants me to do it for myself I love him for that.

    I am recently single after many years in a loveless relationship. There is a lot of issues happening with that. I have lost 80 lbs in the past two years, and when I get stressed, I tend to go off the wagon. I don't want to do that this time. I want to maintain and even get healthier. I appreciate the motivation. I hope I can help others stay motivated as well!
