    Hi Wendy - welcome! I just joined about a week ago. I really love it so far.

    I am a 47 year old mother of 2 grown children and 1 precious grandson and another on the way (we are hoping for a girl!!!). My son is getting married in June, so I hope to be able to buy this beautiful dress I found. I started losing weight at 207.8 pounds and today I weigh 197.0 pounds. I have to say that I dropped one whole pant size with that 10 pounds! I have about 50 more to go, but I'm taking it one day at a time. :tongue:

    Good luck to you!

    Hello I am relatively new too...I signed up a while ago, but really didn't start the program, I really stated a couple of days ago. I am Maggie, I am 27, and I have a 3 y/o girl and a 4 month old boy. I am currently living in Louisiana. My current weight is 156 lbs. and my goal is 130 lbs. My baby was 9 lbs. 1 oz. at birth, so you can imagine what my tummy looks like! Welcome and I also hope I can meet new people and stay motivated!:flowerforyou:
