I am 41 years old and have 3 kids. I now weigh 200lbs and am only 5 foot 3 inches tall. I need all the help I can get! The doctor put me on medication to help with weight loss and it has been working. I was up to 223lbs. I just can't seem to stay with it because I don't keep loosing. I need to loose for health reasons. Not to mention my self esteem!

    Feel free to add me. I am a working mother of 4 and I was in the "I need to lose weight for health reasons" as well. I was having high blood pressure problems and with a family history of high blood pressure and diabetes, I knew I needed to make changes. This is a great site for motivation, support, and help!
