    Don't feel that you're alone. So many of us are in that same boat. The best advice I ever got was to forgive myself. I beat myself up every time I slip, but never pat myself on the back when I do well. I'm a single mom of two, working fu time, spent the last 2 years taking care of my Mom who had cancer, and before that dealing with the divorce from an ex who preferred being a child to raising his.
    You can do it!

    My favorite quote "every day is a fresh start". Be kind to yourself! We all can use help. I know I can

    You can do it!! I have twin 20 month old boys and I put on 80 pounds with the pregnancy and almost two years later have almost 50 pounds still hanging on. I am trying some new approaches now and I am down 15 pounds since January 21. Just keep going!
