in Introduce Yourself
Hi! I am hoping to lose the 50lbs (at least) that I have gained in the last 10 -12 years. Having four kids(10,8,5,1) has taken it's toll on my body. I have difficult pregnancies physically and am basically unable to walk for 7 months, and a few of my births have left me unable to walk for several months as well. With my last son, I broke my pelvis and after working on regaining some strength for half a year or so and just starting to be able to be a little more active, I fell down the stairs and broke my foot. That was Christmas Day last year and we are still trying to figure out why it isn't healing. That all said, I have gained more weight then I'd like and it's time to starts losing it! :) I REALLY want not only to be less heavy, but more than that I want to be able to be physically active. I want to be strong. I want to show my boys what active healthy living looks like. I'm 33 years old, and I hurt all over. I want that to stop! And so here I am, trying again, to eat well and increase my activity level, one step at a time!

Anyone have a similar story and want to join me?

Alanna

    Hi! Feel free to add me! I'm hoping to gain friends who will support each other and keep each other accountable. I have two wonderful kids and everyone wants a piece of my time and energy. It's hard trying to find the time to workout, but it's totally worth it. Lead by example.
