in Introduce Yourself
Hi!
just thought I would introduce myself. My name is Stacy- I am married, mom of 5 who over the years has put on some weight for various reasons. After an emotionally stressful event in my life recently I have decided to change it up! :) I am down 20 pounds in two months so far. I have 50 more to go at this point.

I love to encourage others and try to stay positive. I look forward to being on this site more

    Twenty pounds in two months is fantastic!

    I have a lot more than fifty pounds to lose, and I try not to set a timeline on myself because then I go crazy, but in the back of my head I'd like to at least be down fifty by this time next year. If more, then that's great, if less, that's good too. I just want to be healthy before my body realizes how unhealthy I've been for years.

    Hi Stacy! Welcome!
    I have been a member for a while but never active with the community. It's great you didn't allow a stressful situation keep you down. 20 pounds is fantastic! Congrats!

    I'm also new to this forum, and have lost 20 lbs in a year, not great but need to find more ideas for dinner after 9 pm. I know bad time for dinner, but working two jobs I don't get home until late. I also have tried pre-planning but need some other ideas. looking forward to getting to know some folks here.

    Im from Massachusetts and hoping to take at least 100 lbs off. Brenda
