edited February 9 in Introduce Yourself
To start, my name is Nicole. I am trying this again. I posted in here before, but not sure why I forgot to completely introduce myself.

So, I have two daughters, 4 and a stepson, 7. They are sure a handful. And working so much and taking care of the family, I am still trying to lose my baby weight. In 2011, I tried this site, lost 30 pounds, and then in 2012 and this year, I just lost myself. I want to start to try again for the new year. On January 6, I will be starting a 90 day exercise program. But, I want to kick start healthy eating habits before I start.

I am looking for friends that I can motivate and support as well as be supported. In the past, I found that I was being more of a supporter than being supported. I want to start fresh, add friends and moms that are in the situation that I am.

I hope to see a lot of you around here. I am looking forward to getting to know a lot of you and hope to make some new friends. :)

    I, too have a daughter that is almost four. Still trying to lose the baby weight also... I know how it is to be a mom and wife while trying to lose the weight. I am also looking for people to support me while I strongly support them. I would love to be your motivational friend :)

    I just started back today. I was on here last year, and I did well for a while, but then I quit. When I look at the fact that I let a whole year go by it's actually quite depressing. I'm here now though, and I'm ready. Open to friend requests. I prefer people with an open diary of real food. I like to get ideas for real life meals. I just can't get into all of the weird stuff. If you feel the same way, friend me.
