    Hi there! Good luck!! We all struggle, but every day you do what you know you need to do, you can consider that a battle won and one more step closer to winning the war against being unhealthy!

    Hi there,

    Good luck on our weight loss journey, the only advice I have is to just stick to it and know if you fall off that even starting again is progress. I normally go in waves, but my end goal is always the same. Take it a day at a time. With you being a mom, remember activity counts. Activity includes any and everything- washing clothes, grocery shopping, ect. So why you think you don't have the time, you're already doing something, and it DOES count! Good luck! :-)

    Anyone is welcome to add me. I'm Lew. I'm down 144 pounds since the first of July and have a bit less than 70 pounds to go. I don't have the answers but my diary is open to friends so you can see what has worked for me. I also answer most questions and respond to countless posts daily.

    Hi I am Linsey and I have been using MFP pretty much every day since 1/20/2013 ( a little over 2 months) and have lost 25 pounds as of yesterday! So I am still pretty new at and have much more to lose about 100 more pounds to go. I have a open food/exercise diary. I am currently going though nursing school myself so I know with just clinicals how crazy some of the nursing hours are. Well friend request sent! Anyone feel free to add me :)
