in Introduce Yourself
Hello everyone, I am new to this site. I have tried many things before but this time I am very motivated. I will be turning 36 in a month and have come to the realization that I have to get my butt in gear. I am still young and have to change my lifestyle so I can live a longer healthier life. A little about me....I am a mom of 3. Before having my kids I was at a good weight. With my first child I gained 80 pounds. yes you read correctly. And since then I have not really been able to take it off.
I currently work night shift and that has not helped with my weight loss. We order out a lot and patients are always bringing in sweets. When I get tired I usually turn to food to help me stay awake.
I am hoping that this site along with some willpower will help me find my old self. Looking forward to reading everyones messages and finding tips to help me accomplish my goals.

    I work nights as well (except this month I am on light duty during the day because I broke my dang toe) and I have found that the best way for me to keep on track is to plan ahead and bring food to work with me. I bring my own snacks and lunch, or else I fall in the trap of eating out with the others.

    I wish you the best of luck!!!
