Hi Everyone!
My name is Cam. I found this site a few months back but finally decided to use it. I have lost weight before (92lbs actually). I was motivated and found it quite easy. Well, then life changed. I had another baby, my husband (who is in the army) relocated us to another state, and then left me with a 2 week old, and extremely hyper 4 yr old, for a a 15 month deployment. So, I went into survival mom mode and forgot about myself. Sadly, I gained it all back!! Well, now my boys are 8 and 3 and I am ready to get back on track!! Plus being in Hawaii is a HUGE motivator as well. There are very few plus size clothing store here. I'm looking for support, positivity, and encouragement. Feel free to send friend request. :)

    Hi Cam! Welcome. I am new to the site also and need some support and friends. I am with you on the up and down scale...and understand the frustration of having to do it all again. But I know we can do it this time with the support of the MFP community. Let's do it!!

    I was born and raised in Hawaii -- and I miss it! ...and sad to say, the thing I miss most about the islands (other than my family) is the FOOD!!
