Hi All,

I joined last week and I'm loving this new venture!
I'm a home-schooling mom of 4 wonderful children. Formerly from England, I've been here just over 10 years.
My goal is to get back down to my pre-baby weight! I lost 10 lbs before I joined and I have about another 25 lbs to go.
I love to cook and I'm always trying new dishes, particularly Indian food - yum!
My first weigh-in is on Sunday! Excited but a little nervous! I've opted for the slow and steady pace of losing 1lb a week.
Once I complete my goal, I intend on using MFP to maintain it.
Have a great day! :smile:

  • Hi Trulyfree! Love that name! I am new too and just recommitting myself to losing another 40 lbs. I started with a 3 day water fast which was easier than any diet I was ever on.: I'm in Fla. A married Mom of one son, almost 12 and also a mosaic artist. I hope today is going good for you! :smile:

    Hello everyone,
    I am from Ohio. I have 2 adult children of my own and am guardians of 4 other children. I recently looked at pictures of myself and thought oh no where has the real me gone. Today is the first day of my journey. So far so good. I am a little confused but will get it. One questions is do I weigh the meat before or after it is cooked. I am so thankful I was told about this site. Now I need to get some exercise in. Good luck to all:flowerforyou:
