edited October 2024 in Introduce Yourself
I just wanted to introduce myself and hopefully find some buddies out there.

My name is Chris. I am a 32 year old mother of 2. I have probably been on every diet you could imagine. Some have worked some have not. At my heaviest I was 230. That was after my daughter was born. My lowest weight in the past 10 years has been 160 which was a year ago. My current weight is around 183. I would love to get down to 130-140. I am currently eating healthy and working out 5 days a week or more.

I love to cook, spend time with my kids, read, and listen to music.

I would love to get to know more of you and share tips and support! :o)

    Mom of 2 here from Dallas area. I wish you luck. Eating and exercising sounds like you are off to a good start. I was not doing that. Then after 1/2 way to my goal here on MFP, I gained my weight back.. and here I am starting over and would love to encourage you as I hope you do me. Good luck.. and record everything.. food and excersise and slowly week after week it will come off.

    Hello,

    I am the mother of 4,two of each. I had the last two back to back and my youngest is 8 months old. I was my heaviest the week before I had her. When I seen the scale say 300 I was mortified. I went home and cried my eyes out. Since July I am down 45 pounds. I still have a lot to go but I am taking it in little goals. My first goal is to be at 225. Just got 30 to go. I would like to be there by her 1st birthday.
