Hi Everyone,

I was so excited to find out about this website. I am 41 and the mother of a 4yr old and a 5 yr old. Life is busy but mostly in a good way. I work full time, mostly in front of a computer, so my job is very inactive. My friend and I work out a couple of times a week. It was easier in the Winter (believe it or not) to get to the gym. We try to do some outside activities with the kids as much as we can but it's mostly good intentions. I have 110 lbs to lose and have been a yoyo dieter for most of my life (havn't we all). I am ready to get back on track and am looking forward to making good use of this website and making some new friends.

Thanks
Darla

    Welcome! This site is a GREAT tool! Use it to it's full potential. You'll find tons of support and motivation. I suggest that you log your food BEFORE you eat it everyday - it's apt to open your eyes to making better choices, and drink lots of water. Also - consider filling out your profile - sometimes it's helpful to look back at to remind yourself about what you're here for in the first place, and for us to read to help identify with you. Have a healthy, happy day!
