I am a 41 year old homemaker, and a mother of three, step mom of two. I used MFP a few years ago, and lost a lot of weight. Then I met my now husband, and...well...I'm not exactly sure what happened. I was about 185, and feeling pretty good (I'm 5'11"). Now I am up to 273!
I am looking for other women to encourage me on my journey...and i will support and encourage you too..no men please!

    I currently have tennis elbow on both sides, and issues with my IT band (knee), but am going to do my best to start working out again! ;)

    I get it I turn 40 in a few weeks, I got two kids and topped out at near 220. I just started back up with this off and on. The app helps, however I got a wearable fitness tracker it's really helps. Keeps me honest about my exercise.

    I am home with my 3 kids and am 38. I lost about 50 pounds in 2012 and then we added a baby to our family. Since she was born I have been able to maintain but I am now getting back to losing the second 50 I need to lose. I will send a friend request :smiley:
