    Thank you so much. Just means a lot to me to lose it so as I grow older I'm healthier for myself and for my kids! Thank you for the encouragement.

    The important thing to remember is even though this journey isn't always 'easy', it is always worth it! I too have kids and it's worth it a thousand times over to be healthy and able to enjoy life with them as they grow older!

    You obviously want this enough and I know that if you just give it your all, the healthy lifestyle you want and deserve will be all yours!

    All the very best!

    You are completely right! It's not easyatall but I believe in myself. And that's how it should be. I mainly struggle with the depression part but I never talk about it. Like even though I'm happy I'm losing weight I still look at myself as a huge blob. Not to mention people's comments made to me over the past few months about being big. I just hate it. But I know rather than complain i need to get up and do something about it. And many females feel this way. But it's what finally started this journey for me.

    I'm in a very similar situation. 23 wife and mom and needing to lose at least 60 lbs. I'm also new to MFP and need to find people that can connect with me and help push me through. I'm ready to make changes, but extra motivation is always nice.

    Hi there! I'm looking for support too working hard to lose 50lbs my doctor says I'm morbidly obese and I never want to hear that again! Im 24 and I'm not married but have a long time bf who's naturally lean so I'm almost alone in this fight! You can add me I'm good at giving others advice that I need to follow myself!
