Over the last 8 years I gained 80lbs after nursing school and also from just living life with my 3 kids and husband. Now my 3rd son is 19months I’m ready to lose ALL the weight I gained over the years. I want to feel like myself again and be proud of the body that I have! I want to be healthy and fit!

It’s only been 2 weeks since I’ve take this “lifestyle change”...I am ready!!! I’ve lost 4 pounds so far!!! This community is so awesome..thank you!

    boy, i said those very words this January..."i just want this weight off!".... i missed the old me too... i thought that verson of mewas gone forever. I too carried the weight for 8 years.. so yeah.. weird post..i could have written it...minus 3 of the kids. :)

    Anyway...i'm a few pounds away from my goal weight So, if I did it you can too!

    And it is so amazing to see the old me again...the me I thought was lost forever. You will find your old self too! Keep your drive...stick with your plan. When you feel weak..push through...you wake up the next day stronger. Good luck!

    You will get there, just stick to it, no matter what. And when you have those slip-ups, just keep trucking. They will happen, but don't beat yourself up. You can do it!
