Hello, my name is Whitney. I have struggled with my weight my whole life Four years ago I decided to make a change and join WW I did awesome on it, I lost 85lbs and was in the best shape of my life. Well 6 months later I started planning my dream wedding and the stress got to me, instead of going to a gym to work out and take out my stress and anger I would sit down in front of the computer or TV and eat my pain away. I gain back 20lbs and then 2 months after our wedding I got pregnant with twin girls I gained 40lbs of water weight and lost all of it once the girls were born. After a month of being home with them I got postpartum depression and started eat A LOT. Now I am the heaviest I have been even when I was pregnant with my girls. I am currently 287lbs and hate myself. I tried WW again, but can't seem to get in the mod to lose weight. I am hoping that I can lose weight with myfitnesspal. and find people that will help me along the way

    Hi Whitney, You can do this, you have to believe it and want it more than anything! Think about your children and how much more difficult it will be to do the things you want to do with them in your unhealthy state. You have done it before, you can do it again. I lost weight many times before it finally stuck. I am down over 100 pounds and have kept my weight off for 10 years. You have the power to change your life!
