Well this will be the third time im on here trying to lose weight, the last two times i ended up getting pregnant and not i am done having kids and want to do this once and for all. I spend the majority of my time at home with my three little kids and i think i do a lot of bored eating which is why i decided to try this one more time although right now i feel like its soo impossible.

    I know how you feel. I am a dad and with the little ones in the house it is often impossible to take care of your needs and that often means proper eating habits. Here is the thing, you count too !!!!!!!! Stop for a minute and think of yourself and the eating habits you are going to leave your childrren. You can find this to be mission quite possible indeed. Good luck !!!!

    What have you done to prepare yourself success? True successful weight loss is a lifestyle change and takes preparation and planning. I highly recommend making a daily list of things you want to accomplish that day and also planning out your meals, its just as important for the kids as it is for you.

    I'd love for you to add me as a friend so I can offer encouragement and support to you as you start your journey.

    remember to make short term goals as well as your long term one.. this will help you get to your goal. set a goal to run 5 miles for the week, or take stairs instead of the elevator to your office.. little things like this will help you. another simple goal is to just try and lose 2 pounds for the week, and stay away from the scale until the end of the week.. good luck to you
