Hi everyone!
I started my journey in April of this year at 245 lbs and size 18/20. I was tired of being tired and not being able to run around with my 4yo daughter. I realized I was missing out on so many memories with her.

I started eating healthier and doing 25 min exercises at home and lost 65lbs in 6 months! However, in the beginning of last month I traveled across the country to visit family. I fell completely off track, I stopped exercising and ate anything AND everything that sounded good. Miraculously, I've only gained 1 lb back in one month. I've come a long way and I'm SO proud of myself but my journey is not done yet so today I'm starting again!

I could use some extra motivation, accountability and even recipes to get me through the holidays. Lets get through this together! :)

    Hey! You can add me too! I'm a 28yo mama of 2. I used MFP before kids and lost 35-40lbs. My weight has been up and down with having them. I recently started getting serious about my weight loss but also went to visit family and fell off the wagon for 2 weeks.

    Please add me. I seriously need some support and folks to help hold me accountable. Shamefully, over the past 5 yrs I've gained nearly 45 lbs and I seriously need the weight loss and health perspective change. Mommy of a 14 month old. And wife of a husband who loves to eat just as much. Lol
