in Introduce Yourself
I was doing really good about watching what I eat and exercise and was on my way to 130's. Last year in August I started the nursing program. WIth the stress of being in the nursing program, have 2 children and a husband, I gained 22 lbs, I need motivation from friends to keep me going throughout this 2nd year of nursing so I can lose the weight!!!:smile:

    Hi,

    Don't worry to much as this site is the best thing since slice bread for weightloss! Try not to put too much pressure on yourself regarding losing weight. Try to take a healthy approach, this way the healthier you are, the better you will feel and the weightloss will come with it! Xx

    Hi!

    I also want to lose 30 or so, a bit older then you (more than 5, less then 10 years older :))), with a kid and post baby (5 years post baby!) weight that kept increasing due to the stresses of starting grad school. Now I'm midway through my doctoral program, and ready to focus on losing weight!

    I'm Jana. 26 trying to lose 120 (now 109). Been on here for little over 3 months now and have managed to lose and keep off 13lbs. :) Working towards my first 5K in two weeks.

    MFP is a great community and everyone is super nice. :) It's a great way to keep motivated and there are lots of neat places to get advice and see how successful others have been.

    Feel free to add me. :)
