Hey cuties! I'm 37, beat cancer, struggled with weight my whole life, accept others for their differences, have a bit of a potty mouth sometimes, am not offended easily, juggling working full time and raising 2 kids, I gained 60lbs with my last pregnancy (I swear that boy was trying to kill me!!) I eat food, real food, clean food, processed foods, coffee, oh God coffee, and usually eat chocolate every day ::gasp:: I drink beer and enjoy bar food, although I'm past that point where I go out. I'm learning moderation and workout every day or try to. I don't care if you log cleaning as an exercise, hey who am I to judge. I can be moody and can be really happy and farting rainbows and other days I act like someone sh1t in my oatmeal. Eh, but that's me. I like to laugh and try to find humor in most things.
I lost 50lbs in 2012 and have since, well, am fat again. I'm looking for friends with similar views. I will support your choices and support you when I can. So add me bc of everything I've learned about losing weight, the support is a big part. So I'm waving hi..cheers to a healthy new year!

    Please add me. You seem like a lot of fun. I am 43 and have been struggling since I got pregnant. Gained 40 to 60 pounds with each pregnancy. Now my youngest is 10 and I can't blame baby weight anymore...right? I also don't always eat well, I eat fast food & drink... I have 2 boys... but I want to get healthy.
