HI there! Do people really read all the newbie posts??? Just wonderin....lol
I'm a 28 year old wife and mother of 3 little ones. I work full time and wish I was at home. I've been "plus sized" since I was very young and until recently only wanted to look good. Now, I just want to be able to play with my kids, have energy...and be still going when my kids bless me with granchildren someday.
I lost 60 pounds in the past with weight watchers online and exersize. I can't afford it now, and was soooo pleased to find this site!!
I'm hoping to lose the weight in a healthy way and make everyone proud of me...especially ME!!
