    Hi Heather,

    I'm Nakabi and I'm so excited about your weight loss! Good for you losing the weight, not only for your son, but also for yourself! I'm a mom to a 22 month old and a 4 month old so I understand about how busy you can get and not take time for yourself :)

    I'm wanting to lose about 30 pounds and then maintain...

    All the best,
    Kabi
