Well, after wanting to lose weight for a few years i have finally decided to do something about it! I am a wife and a mother of a 6 month old baby.. So to begin my main goal is to get rid of the weight that i have gained with this baby! To get me motivated i need A LOT of support and i was hoping this is where i could get it! my goal is to lose 60 pounds! This will be very hard for me because im not a big fan of cooking! But luckily my husband cooks so gettin him to cook right for me has motivated him to also to lose weight! This will be a long journey for the both of us!
Wish us luck! :)

    Lacigirl, First of all, congratulations on making the decision to change your life for the better. I have been on this site for a week and I LOVE IT! Definitely a lot of support on here. Second, if you're interested, I really enjoy cooking, and I would love to help you find some recipes that are healthy and easy to make that might get you into the cooking "fan" club.

    Let me know. : )

    hi lacie girl! I am also a mom and gained and lost over the years, and I too am looking to lose 60 pounds! Since none of my friends will jump on the wagon with me, maybe we can be buddies! I have successfully lost using this site before, but fell off the wagon in November, and never jumped back on til now! I too am going to check out that hungry-girl site for new recipe idea. I also use allrecipes.com for new and good ideas.
