I started using this site at the beginning of the week but haven`t really explored the features. Tonight I started reading some posts and felt inspired to post as well!
My name is Liz and I am a 27 year old mother. I have been wanting to lose weight for many years but never really did anything about it. I have decided that now is the time!
So far in my journey I have lost 10 lbs and my BMI has changed from Obese to Overweight. I am watching what I eat and exercising, but I know myself well enough to seek support from others in the same boat. One of my biggest motivations is being healthy for my 5 year old son and passing on healthy habits.
That seems like a sufficient introduction. So, good luck to everyone else in reaching your goals!
