Hi, I'm Amanda. I just started with MFP about 2 weeks ago and have had an amazing start. I have about 70lbs to lose but I set small goals because big goals just end in failure for me. I'm 29 years old and a single mom to the most amazing little girl. She's deaf/hard of hearing and is my greatest inspiration in life. She lets NOTHING stand in her way! I want, no NEED to succeed in getting healthy so I can always be the best mom I can be to her. I'm looking to grow my support system and would love to meet more people. :)

    Meeting you Simmie has been a god sent. Your daily post and blogs are so inspirational to me. In fact I've had one of your daily post written on my white board for a few days now. Because it applys to not just my healthy life style change but my entire life. "we succeed only when we first realize our failures are the preparation to our victories!"

    Hello everyone! I am very excited to get started on this program! 2 years ago I joined Weight Watchers and sucessfully lost 40 lbs. but life caught up with me and I have gained half of that back. I really need something to motivate me and keep me on track and this looks like an great way to do it! I am excited to hear from all of you and your personal successes and little things along the way that each of you have had to overcome. Good Luck to all of you! Wish me lots luck as well!
