Hello, everyone! I have been on MFP for over a year. I love this site, but have fallen off the wagon a few times. I really want to stay on course, and I'm thinking some buddies will help!!! I am a 36 year old wife, mother of two, and a school nurse. Feel free to add me, and I'll be there for you, too! :)

    I feel your pain. I have been up and down 40-60 pounds for the last 10 years. I can often drop the weight, but start getting comfortable and indulging.

    Add me if you like.

    It's time to treat food and exercise as a lifestyle.

    Please add me as well, and anyone else for that matter! I'm new here but I lost 100lbs last year and then got pregnant and gained 80 :( YUCK! Now I need to lose 40 more lbs to get back to where I was and the motivation is SO much harder this time so I could definitely use some encouragement and motivators!
