in Introduce Yourself
Hi all! My name is Misi Savage. I am a 43 year old wife and mother. I have four kids, 20, 19, and 8 year old twins. One would think that since I have all that going on I would be nice and trim. NO! But, I am working on it.

Here for the encouragement and great ideas that I am sure will be on these boards.

Have a great day!

    I think it's harder to eat well/healthy when you have kids and so many other's likes/dislikes to think about. So, kudos to you for being ready to make a change! Good luck! :flowerforyou:

    We are in a similar place. I am 46 and the mom of 4 kids, 18, 15, 13, and 5. I've been on here for almost a month and have lost 9 pounds. Great site. Send me a friend request if you'd like. Good luck!

    Hi and welcome Misi! I'm also new to mfp. I'm a 46 yr old mother of 2 boys. I have struggled with my weight all my life. Lose it gain it back, etc. Time for me to lose it for good! I know with friends it works much better because if you are down, you have someone to encourage and lift you up:) Feel free to add me. We can do this!!!!!
