Hi everyone!

My weight loss journey officially starts today! I recently had our first child in August and its time for me to get in shape. I have always been overweight, but I refuse to be for the rest of my life. My new life starts today. I want to be able to run around with my son, and have the energy to play with him.

While my husband was deployed, we talked about changing our eating habits and joining a gym. Well since he's been home, we have started going to the gym, but now its time to change the way we eat.

    Good Luck!! I am doing the exact opposite, I have been doing really good with eating well, but not with the exercise...there is lots of motivation and ideas to help on this site though...
