Hi! I am a mother of 3 and finally have time to spend on myself! I turn 40 in March and would like to be 20-25 lbs lighter and in good shape! I have struggled with my weight my entire life but in the last 2 1/2 years have lost 30 lbs and kept it off. Most of it was portion control and staying busy! However, I never got into the fitness side of it and would really like to start! I have the stamina but very bad knees and shin splints. If you have any advice for me, please share! Looking for friends who are in a similar boat!
