in Introduce Yourself
Hello all! I am Lori. I have used myfitnesspal before and lost down to 170. So I know I can do it. Here is the thing! Life threw me a lot of curve balls and well here I am again but now I have even more weight to lose this time. Now I'm at 215 and 42. I could tell you all about how we moved to a colder climate, or how I fostered 3 small kids or that my son almost committed suicide and then say that is why I'm where I am, but the truth is I wanted to eat the food and I did. It made me feel good at the time. It just tasted good! I didn't want to get up and work out so I didn't. I just didn't care! But now.......
I'm in control!!!!! I decided to come back on MFP and finish what I started and live my dream! I don't just want to lose the weight to be skinny I want to be free of this FAT!! I love to hike, camp, garden, play with my chickens, lay in my pool, hang out with my friends, build stuff and even paint! I don't want this holding me back any more.
So here is the thing! I need people to cheer me on and kick my butt when I'm slipping even the littlest. Or to just give me a smile when I do something good. I know it will be given back in return!

    You can do it! There's nothing you can't accomplish with that kind of motivation. One day at a time, one step at a time. Slow and steady wins the race!
