in Introduce Yourself
Hi, my name is Kinda, I'm a mom of 5 and this is my second go around with MFP. My first session went great, lost 25 lbs then got pregnant, had issues and had to stop doing pretty much everything but sit, gained everything back, had surgery and now I'm ready to get this party started again. I lost most of my friends during my lapse as I was gone but now I'm back and need some motivation and encouragement.

I have 100 lbs to lose, I'm a member of my roller derby team, so exercise is happening 3-4 days a week and I just started a new lifestyle change by going more primal. I'm cutting my carbs down while eating lots of protein and veggies and vitamins. Anyway, the point is I need some friends to help cheer me on and I'm great at returning the favor. :)

:happy:

    Hi,

    I have almost that much to lose still myself. You can do it. We can help you by supporting you here. 5 kids, wow....I can't imagine! I have one and she is grown and married. Feel free to friend me if you like. I have had RNY Gastric Bypass so I lose differently sometimes than other people do. But I have learned a lot about nutrition in the last year, and may be able to help if you run into any snags. I wish you the very best of luck...don't give up. YOU CAN DO IT!!!
