Third times a charm?

Hello, my name is Jess, I'm a 26 year old mother of two little boys and two cats :laugh:
I'm restarting again to loose weight as this is now my third and hopefully final time taking off all this weight. When I was 18 I went from 230 pounds to 130, I kept it off until I had my son and gradually went up to 278 right after I had my second child.
Again, I started to loose the weight, I went from 278-178 and went through some depression and again gained it all back and more.
As of December 2013 I decided to loose it for once and all as I had reached 293 pounds, as of today I weigh 280 and declining (hopefully), I have decided I'm no longer going to starve myself to loose weight but pick food that is healthy and start working out once more. I have to admit, I am not patient and cannot wait to be rid of this baggage.
I hope to get to know you all better

Nice to meet you Jess! Good for you for getting back up and on the bandwagon! I sure hope things go well for you! I am new to this site... just joined yesterday but really like it so far. I am 25 years old and a nurse at the hospital. I've realized I can't eat whatever I want any more and maintain where I was at. Best of luck to you, keep your chin up!0
