Hello, Just joined

Options
Hello, my name is Amanda and I just joined. I am a stay at home mom with 2 children. One in 5th grade and the other in 3rd grade. I am looking to loose around 40 pounds. I bought a bike recently but it's been raining so much, I just haven't been out. I really need some motivation. I also have a wii with the wii fit board, so no more excuses when it's raining. :)

    Good job getting motivated. Dont forget the mall is a good place to go walk without the credit cards of course.

    Hello Amanda,

    A little tip: to stay motivated, getting friends really helps. The forums are nice and helpful, but the people you connect with are what seem to keep you going on a daily basis. So send those requests to people who look interesting to you!

    P.S. Did you get the subtle hint? :)
