edited October 5 in Introduce Yourself
I am a full time mom as well as work 40+ hours a week. I am about 5'9 and lets say I need to lose about 100lbs to start!.
I am trying to build a group of supporters because it is so important to have someone tell you good job or show tough love when you need it. My name is Christina my daughteer is 11 years old and I want to have the energy it takes to keep up with her. Anyone else out there looking for friends? Let me know! :flowerforyou:

    I'm there with you, feel free to add me. I have five kids (4 boys ,1 girl) age 15, 13,12,11,and just turned 4. I work close to 70 hours a week and life is hectic but I have 113 more pounds to lose to be at my goal. I can do another 20 after that 'maybe'. I'm pretty good at staying on track but have those off months that I just get so frustrated and would like to find like minded individuals to help keep me motivated and vice versa. I'm a journalist so lucky for me I get to be on the internet a whole lot in between pieces.

    Guys- I have been doing this about two weeks and lost 2 pounds. It helps just looking at exactly what you eat each day and seeing the calories, It makes me more conscious of the food that I choose. Feel free to send me a friend request- I think it's important to both give and receive support!
