Hi! My name is Lisa and I am a 38 year old mother to 3 who lives in Virginia. My whole life I have struggled with my weight. Approx. 2 1/2 years ago I lost nearly 50 pounds, only to allow myself over time gain almost all of it back. Today is the start of my new journey. A journey to less weight and a healthier life style. I am looking to make new friends who are also on this journey. I feel support is key. :) It's nice to meet everyone! Friend me, please. ♥

    You've found the right place! I have seen so many successes here. If you use the tools, it will WORK!! Bottom line is calories in vs. calories out. CONGRATS!
