Got a long road ahead of me...

Options
Hey everyone, I am pretty new to the site and I am looking for some people to go down this road with. I am a 25 year old mother of 4... yes 4... and with my hubby now deployed I want to make it so that he doesn't even know its me when he comes off of that plane... Right now I am looking at needing to lose 40-50 lbs just to be in the healthy point, but that doesn't mean I am going to stop there. Anyone interested in walking down this road with me?

    Hello and welcome!! This site is a great tool for anyone looking to lose weight! Just always keep those goals in mind whenever you feel like giving up. What a wonderful way to surprise your husband when he gets back from deployment.
    I'll send you a friend request to keep eachother motivated :smile:

    Every road begins with one step, which you have done.. and take it one step at a time, set small goals and as you can see, its possible. I am half way down my road.. if you want to add me send me a request!
