What happened to that skinny little lady from years ago that couldn't gain a pound over 117? At nearly 40, she's married her soul mate, had 4 children, ....and found 100 lbs. I have little time for anything but after a step on the scale last week, I can't live trapped anymore. What ever it takes, with God's help, I will win this battle for my health.

  • Welcome to MFP!!!! I hope you find what you are looking for here!! It's a great support system...THis is my (whispers) 3rd time using it....I am working on making it a habit....I would track for a few weeks..then fall off the wagon..fell off for a whole year!!!! Lost weight on my own..gained it back...came back..now trying to lose it all over again! I am working on imersing myself and being more active with the site than just using it to track my calories/exercise! Best of luck to you!
  • Before I met my husband I was 105 lbs and then I met my husband and got too comfy and ended up over weight. I started to get fit again so that I could have children because my weight keep me from it. Well In 2006 I got pregnant with my daughter and had her in 2007 3 months early. That put me back at a big set back and I gained tons :( 3 years later I realized I need to put a stop to my unhealthy habits and I took control. Grant it I felt like I didn't have the time but I had to make the time to do it, and it worked. With in 12 weeks I lost 28 lbs and I ended up pregnant with my son. After I had my son in 2010 I was down way past my pre pregnancy weight and then found out my milk was no good and I felt like I starved my son because I didn't know my milk was bad and I got severely depressed and gained all my weight back plus more. I made it my goal this New Year that I will lose the weight and keep it off. I have a ways to go but I know I can do it. I believe in my heart that I know you can do it and you will succeed :) I will be there for you and support and encourage all the way to help you succeed with your journey :)
