I am a 32 year old married mother of a 14 yr old and a 3 year, both girls! I have been using the phone app but recently started the website, which i find quicker and easier! I need motivation at times. I had lost 50 pounds last year and my father became terminal and we cared for him at home until he passed away but it was at his home which was his wish. The loss combined with 5 months later my mom had to have quad bypass surgery! Needless to say i gained all my weight back! I know i will not live long if i dont get this off. Diabetes, heart problems, hypertension, im a candidate for all not to mention i developed gestational diabetes with my last pregnancy so it increases my risk for future problems! I cant imagine not being there for my kids! i went through losing my dad and he was only 66 years old and thats to young! i want to be a better wife and mom and i feel losing this weight will help! i dont have a good support system, but my husband has started dieting and i hope he sticks with it too! i work int he medical field and there is always unhealthy stuff lying around so i have started taking my slim fast shake to the mornign sit down meeting where they usually have cakes and donuts and things! Any recipes that are child accepted, healthy and quick would be so appreciative. i need this support system, please feel free to add me as a friend, be my much needed support, my life depends on this!
