Hello I am the proud mom of 4 wonderful boys ages 9,8,5,4. I recently had a check up and am on the verge of being diabetic. I am currently 272 at 5'4. I hope to make some new friends who will help me on this long journey I have in front of me. I seriously have emotional issues with food that I need to change any help would be amazing.

I have 2 kids. I started at 290. I'm 5'3.
I started in mid April and am currently down to 233. I don't deprive myself of things I love. I still eat chocolate, etc. My biggest advice is to use a food scale and weigh everything.5 -
Hi I am a mom of 1 who is almost 2. I am 5'4" and 337 as of today. My weight goes up and down. I started at 344.7 last Monday. So feelig pretty good about the drop in weight this week. Last time this year I was under 300. 344.7 was my highest weight ever. Trying to get healthy for me and also my faimly. Go momma's go!2

Hey! I'm a mom of four boys too! (1-8) I started at 277 in Feb and I'm down to 207. You can totally do it. I trick my kids into eating healthier food by giving it gross names. Spaghetti squash is boil worms. Zucchini noodles are zombie brains. Anything wrapped in lettuce is called naked. Works like a charm6

Feel free to add me! I'm a mom of 4, my sons are 20, 18 and 5 and my daughter is 16. I'm an emotional eater too but my cholesterol was high, heart disease runs in our family and I just don't want to have a heart attack, I figured that my life was worth more than the food that I was putting in my mouth.2
