My name is Hope and I have been on MFP for a while, but have just now started using it. Let's just say I wasn't ready for change until now. I am 36, have 2 children and am married. One child is moderately autistic and the other is on the high functioning end of the spectrum. I have diabetes, high cholesterol, high triglycerides, fatty liver, all the things that go with being overweight. But the thing that changed was this: My son came home and told me kids were teasing him because I was fat. So, I decided right then and there I needed to change for them. So far, I have lost 12 pounds from 308 to 296. Have a good start!
