    Welcome! I started this page in March. So I am pretty much starting my self. The only thing that sucks for me is I like to eat alot lol. So I am trying really hard not to eat too much calories. You can add me if you like for motivation. :) Good Luck to you.

    Saw your post, writing to encourage you to continue doing good things for yourself. I started taking better care of myself in January when I ended up in the hospital with what I thought was a heart attack. I have two sons in college and this experience transformed my thinking! I got a flyer from a local church that was hosting a weight loss competition. I learned so much about making small simple changes, not a diet but lifestyle changes. It has been an incredible experience! I started a food journal and set long term and short term goals! I have learned to treat myself with kindness! I use the journal to write encouraging words to myself.

    Each day I wake up excited and looking forward to exercising. We have such a valuable role as mothers, what a wonderful gift we are to our children. I now have a new outlook, I want to finish well, to eat fresh foods in moderation, to exercise so I have energy for my family!

    Have a great week, you have made the decision to take care of yourself, that's the most difficult step. You can do it!!!!!
