in Introduce Yourself
Hi im Mckinsie! I'm 22 years old. I'm married and have a 3 year old little girl. I joined because i need a huge dose of reality that i need to get my weight off. I use to weight 125 before i got pregnant with my daughter and i gained 60 pounds in my pregnancy, which has been a huge thing to get off.
I honestly have no motivation! I love food and hate to exercise! Also i am a navy wife and we just transfered to Norfolk. Before we moved i was doing Jillian Michaels 30 day shred and had cut back on my eating. I lost 6 pounds but since we've moved and i've been super stressed. I've gained it all back :( & I just cant seem to want to get back into the groove of working out! So i need some huge support and motivation!

    Hi Mckinsie! My name is Teresa and I have been here a week. 1 day at a time...never look to far ahead and...keep your goals at 10 pound marks. It is easier for me to do it that way. feel free to add me. YOU CAN DO THIS!
