Starting again and I need help

I am back and heavier than ever! I have been dealing with thyroid issues and lots of stress ( moved to a 3rd world country, trying to learn a language, trying to keep my family healthy in the midst of it all, homeschooling 7, etc.) It is time to deal with the weight gain. I have about 60lbs. to lose to get back to where I was 3 years ago. I loved the way I felt and looked then. I need some people to join me and push me to keep it up even amidst the craziness. I will encourage you too. I will try to log in as often as I can. (We don't always have power especially if we go to the village in the bush.)
