    A bit about yourself:

    I am a full-time working Mom (Speech Pathologist Assessor) of 4 busy kids, 2 Great Dane puppies and an Army pilot spouse. I was thin and active pretty much my whole life until I had kids - 4 - within 6 years! I kept putting on extra weight after each one and never finding the time to get it off. My husband made his 2nd deployment to Afghanistan in September 2012; separation was hard and I continued to stress bake and eat my way to 191. I was uncomfortable in my own skin, sick, tired and really feeling the effects of the extra weight! The nurse at work started a "Biggest Loser" contest; being a competitor and tired of feeling badly, I joined. I also joined Weight Watchers and began to make better food choices. I won the contest, and $150.00 - losing 60 pounds total. I went from a size 14 to a 4. Since then I have continued running, doing Les Mills Combat, Pump and every other DVD out there and continued on the journey of living a healthier life. I also attend a boot camp 3 times a week that my daughter's gymnastics coach runs... it is quite a work out! Weight-wise I have been creeping up a little, but I am pretty confident it is mostly muscle? (hopeful anyway). I would really love to move that last 5 lbs or so of fat around the middle and continue to tone up!

    It is great fun to read about everyone!

    A bit about yourself: I'm from London originally, but I live in Barcelona now, where I work in reception in a hotel. I love going to the beach but I am very self conscious about the way I look in a bikini, so I'm using this as motivation to lose weight. I'm new(ish) on this site so you can add me if you like because I don't have many friends. :)

    A bit about yourself:

    Hmm..I've been overweight ever since I started puberty. My parents were great enough to raise me to believe that I should love myself no matter what and not care about weight or physical appearance because personality and integrity were far more important. But that idea got a little too firmly imprinted in my brain, and now I'm really trying to lose weight. I want to be more confident about myself, and I want to be healthy. I want to look awesome naked. And I don't want to be another statistic contributing to America's gigantic obesity problem. So I'm ready to do this, be successful, and make friends along the way :)

    A bit about myself: I've always been the athletic girl who was in shape growing up. Now that I am working full-time and going to school part-time, it is hard for me to find time to workout and I always make my busy schedule an excuse to eat out/unhealthy all the time. I may still be young but I know that the longer I keep this up, the harder it will be to break my habits in the future. I know I need to make changes and I'm motivated to do so, just need the extra push sometimes. I'm hoping this group and site in general can help me stay on track and focused!
