Hello all!

Options
I'm NEW! I've been meaning to join this site since October when my work started a Biggest Loser challenge that ends this month (why they would do that RIGHT before 4 'food' holidays I don't know), but kept putting it off.

Now I am on board and ready to do it! I just need some motivation to get me started I think.

I have 2 kids, one 3 year old, one six month old. And I need to lose a lot of weight. :(

Hi all!

    if you need a friend, go ahead and friend me. There are so many great people on here. Advice, encouragement and recipes. I just started last week as well, other sites ive tried the people arent nice, theres no exercise and food plans, and theres not really any things food wise in there, like I had to find the closest things possible, and this is just so awesome here. Congrats on the babies, I have a 2 year old that has endless energy(if i had his energy id probably weigh 100 pounds and cant figure out why he weighs anything, aha) so that works:) Take it slow and coming here is a great step.

    Oh I am not participating in my work's weight loss challenge, just to clarify! That's just the reason I know about this site---they suggested it.

    This has been a long time coming though, so I'm ready!
