Hi all!! I am a mother to 4 children, and grandmother to one grandson. I have lost 25 lbs. over the course of summer by walking more and watching how much and what i eat. I have such a desire to lose a lot more weight so i can watch the family i love grow up and be a role model to them. I have struggled with weight gain since my oldest was born over 20 years ago, and have at times lost 20 lbs. here and there, but can't seem to lose more than that it just pauses and stays there, if that makes sense. I am hoping i can stick to this and lose more over the winter and through the holidays. Good luck to you all, and please any advice would be awesome, and add as a friend if you would like to support me and i will in turn support you. Thank you

    You are at the right place. Before finding this site, I had trouble losing anything but I have finally started losing so I could not be happier.

    You're in the right place, I discovered MFP 6 weeks ago & the encouragement & support of my new friends is fabulous. I have been successful up to a point before, but have never lost weight so quickly as now.
