New Member trying to get healthy for my kids!

Options
I am a mom of two boys ages 5 & 7. Need to lose about 50 pounds. Want to feel better and look better. Need to be healthy for my kids. Have energy to play and keep up with them. It's hard for me to get motivated but I thought this site was a step in the right direction. Any diet friends would be appreciated along with any advice. :-)

    I'm in the same boat as you, but I want to lose slightly more than 50 (more like 100 :sad: ). This is an awesome site for motivation and support. I feel so lucky to have my MFP people in my life. Add me if you like and good luck on your journey! :drinker:
