Moms Losing 50 (Closed Group)

My name is Rhonda. I'm 22 and a mother of one little boy. My main goal is to fit back into my old clothes, but I also just want to live healthier and feel better about myself. My starting weight was 160, but I'm currently at 154. I'm hoping to get back down to 110. I'm looking forward to meeting some new people! :happy:

Hey ladies! My name is Kristen and I'm 27. Married [husband is in the military] and I have two kids. Joey (5) and Bayleigh (1). We are DONE with kids, so I am finally losing all this weight. Obviously my ultimate goal is to lose weight and get around 115-120. I want to get back into running, I used to run at least 5 miles a day! I have some upcoming 5k races and Warrior Dash in 2013 that I am training for

Anyone is free to add me as well!! Good luck!

I am a sahm of 7, only 3 still at home. We did fostercare for 7 yrs and adopted the 3 younger ones they are now 11,13 and 14. I lost 105 lbs about 12 yrs ago and kept it off for 4 yrs then I got sick, fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue and hypothyroidism. Because of being sick, medication, lack of exercise and comfort eating i gained it all back. I decided I was sick and tired of being sick and tired so last july I joined MFP and decided to try to do something about it. I have lost 77 lbs since then but still have a ways to go.

my start weight is 182
my goal is 160 and to feel better

My name is Felicia June and I am a mom of two; 8 year old and a 6 year old. I have found myself battling with weight since my high school years and it got worse once I got pregant (twice). I do have a wonderful husband that is willing to support me but I feel as if I could use additional support. I would like to lose weight to be healthier, to look good, be more confident and to live longer.

A main goal of mines is to have a smaller waist line, flat stomach and be able to buy/fit a little black dress. I am 5'8' so I carry my weight well. My weight is decieving as it looks like I should weight maybe 230 pounds so I know that if I lose 80 pounds, I would look really small but no too small.

I'm ready to have fun and get this "fat" train moving. Good luck to everyone and LET"S DO THIS!

I'm Rachel, a friend of Shannon's. I'm 26 with 2 kids, Colin is 3 and Sam is 1. I do childcare for my niece(5) and nephew (4) full time during the week.

At one point I lost 60lbs, going from 220 to 160. Shortly after I got pregnant with my son and it's all come back again over the years. My starting weight is 223 and my goal weight is 155.

Hey my name is Christina. I am a mother of 3. I am getting married June 20, 2012 and would love to look the same way i did when i met Keith, my fiance. He has loved me when i was my heaviest which was 220 but i was a135 when i met him!! I am 30 years old but feel much older due to being overweight. I want to feel comfortable when im out in public. I want to feel sexy for my man. I also want to just feel good about my self. So far I have lost 28 pounds. I am down to 192. My goal weight is 135 but I would probablly be happy at 150. I guess we will see!!:happy:

Hello Everyone !!! My name is Vivian and I'm a single mom of two children, Kirsten 5 and William 1. I have recently stopped the cycle of off and on again with "the father of my children" because we were never married. When we met I was 170 and now I'm 220. I would love to be back at 155 which was my lowest weight. I'm 5"4', and would love to be healthy for my children since I'm the consistant person in their life. Sorry, I'm late with my information , but my father was in a car accident and I couldn't get online. Thank GOD he is okay with the help of airbags and seatbelts. I would really love to have people to be accountable to and have the support system I'm missing.

I definitely need to be held accountable for working out, otherwise I get lazy.

Welcome to the new ladies!

Hello ladies!! Sorry I'm a little late to the party, but I've often been told I'll be late to my own funeral so this is typical. Anywho, my name is Amanda and I am from Northwest Alabama. I'm 26 yoa and I'm 5'7"ish, 228 lbs. I have two beautiful girls--Halle, who is 9, and Zoe who is 20 mos. I am currently a SAHM at least until school starts back then I will also be a part-time nursing student. I, like so many others here, have struggled with my wieght my entire life. I kinda think it's genetic because my mom has always struggled as well. But here I am at the heaviest I've ever been, even heavier than when I had my youngest child, and I am ready to finally make a change in my life. I have tried several "diets" in the past, have done the starvation thing, and have never had any solid results. I had lost about 30 lbs. when I lived in CO for almost a year and then gained it all back plus some when I moved back to AL. Good ole southern fried everything! LOL My goal is to lose approx. 80 lbs. and be in shape. If I only make it to 55 lbs. and am in shape I will still be happy. Anything is better than where I am now. Sorry for the novel, but this is me in a nutshell. See below for my SW, CW and weight goals. Thanks for allowing me to join! I am so excited about this group!!

today is weigh in day for me and i must say im pretty excited i weighed in at 213 woo hoo

If it's all right with the OP I'm good. The more the merrier! We are in the business of helping people and being supportive!
