Hi everybody Im Brittany. Im new to everything workout or fitness or weight loss related. Ive always been the skinny girl growing up (in fact people thought I had an eating disorder) I never weighed more than 100lbs in high school. I have since had two kids back to back (15months apart) and instead of losing weight Ive just been gaining weight. Im now well over 200lbs and Im sick with myself.
I have been doing two protein shakes a day and a dinner, no junk, no fast foods. I have also started the Biggest Loser Boot Camp dvd workout at least 5-6 times a week and feeling pretty good. I KNOW iI can do this...I put much effort and obsession into other things (child raising related) so I just am switching my obsessions over to getting myself back!

Anyway hello!

    I hear ya. I topped out at 107 in high school. I did the same kids back to back, but I spaced it out and had a third one 10 years after 1&2. When I hit over 200 I went to the doctor to see if #1 I'm healthy enough for exersize #2 how do you lose weight. My Eldest daughter told me about this site and I love it, I don't have to change much just eat right no skipping out on meals. Weird thing is I eat more now than I have in years.

    Good luck to you. I know you can do this.
