Well, Hello everyone!!
My name is Jezika, I am 26 and a stay at home mother of 3 little girls and two dogs.
I did some research on Ask.com to help me find an online calorie counter. Low and behold I find this website, which in all honestly, has got to be the best thing since Chocolate.
I reached an all time high in my weight over this last week and felt like I needed to do something about it.
I actually just had my third and last child 5 months ago and I'm still "eating for two"! Plus we were just on vacation for the 4th of July and stopped by the cursed Harry and David's. So I've been binging on chocolate covered popcorn and chocolate covered pretzels telling myself that once they're all done, I will never buy so much chocolate covered anything again.
Yikes!
I am looking forward to the challenges of losing the weight and getting back to my old self. I've noticed that I am not as energetic now and have a hard time with coordination, especially when running. I used to play sports before the kids came, and now I don't even think I could run around the bases. More than that, I am actually disgusted with myself. I know I shouldn't feel that way, it's damaging psychologically and really hurts any chance of losing any weight.
Anyway, enough rambling and more working out.
Hope to make some great friends!
