Hi I am brand new to the site and so far I am loving it. I have over 50 lbs to loose and hoping that this will finally be the key to changing my lifestyle. I had my first (last) garage sale last week and sold most of my clothes. They were over 8 years old and all of them to small but it was a sad reminder of the person I once was. I think for mom's you give so much of yourselves to your family and forget who and what you were before they came along. Well, there has to be a balance and I am hoping to find it so I can be a better me for myself and my family. So here we go..to that girl that's still in there...you can do it!

    WELCOME TO MFP !!!!! I understand completely about losing yourself when you are a mother. I'm a single mom, and I don't remember the person I was before my daughter. So here I am, with you, hoping to find the person I have become. Lets take the journey.......

    Yeah that's me...looks are decieving. The power of good clothes. I am only 5"2 and currently weighing in at 186lbs. Not so good for someone of my height but thanks to this web-site and new found friends I can do something about it. Thanks for replying and for the compliment!
