in Introduce Yourself
Im so excited to lose weight!! I have 3 wonderful children, 11,7, and 4 mths. Now that I am done having children I would like to feel more comfortable in my own body. Ive always wanted to lose weight but never have stayed commited. Tomorrow it will be a week for me, Ive began to eat healthier and try to burn more calories each day. So all I can say is that it is hard work but Im ready and willing to become more healthier not only for me but for my family!!!

    :smile: Welcome,
    after just being here for 5 days myself, I firmly believe that the water drinking is helping tremendously. I love the counter because I'm not a big fan of drinking water. Somehow, I am up to 10 glasses a day....
    I wish you much success :drinker: :drinker:

    You can do it! all the best on your journey... just remember to be kind to yourself. Your three kids (especially your little one -congratulations by the way!) can make it hard to find time for yourself some days...on the days when you have not been able to work out, or get to the gym, do a few sets of lunges, a few sit ups and start fresh tomorrow.

    All the best, from Victoria, BC

    PS is there an accent in Calgary? :laugh:

    Ive always been trying to do the "water" thing, because everywhere and everyone is always talking about the 8 glasses a day. And now I am a believer. I find if Im not drinking water Im always looking for something to put in my mouth......and my mouth always feels dry. So Im a believer now too!!
