    Hi
    I've been on here for 6 weeks now and am still learning. I am a 46 year old mother of 2, a son aged 20 and a daughter aged 17. I am on a weight loss journey which I prefer to call healthy eating rather than diet, simply bacause if I think I am on a diet I immediately feel restricted. Loving the site and love talking to new friends. I have sent you a friend request so feel free to add me.

    My name is Treva, I've been a member for awhile but haven't done much with it until this week. I'm not sure how to post to these threads (never really been apart of message boards or social net working type forums). I'm 33 yrs married w/ 2 children. my husband and I are trying to change our life styles so that we can teach our children now how to be healthy and eat right before they have to fight this up hill battle. Working 12hr night shifts 3-4 nights a week is making it difficult. any ideas...

    HI!! New again. Started back last week..... I am a mom of 2 .... a 20 yr old son and a 17 yr old daughter.....
    I was doing great on here until last October when I found out I had breast cancer. I just stopped logging in and i didn't have energy or anything soooooooooooooo.... now I am done with chemo, radiation and most meds so I am back on the wagon ....
    I have signed up sor several 5K races, some 10K races and a half marathon.
    would like friends, laughter and encouragement, and offer the same to anyone wanting to be friends!!

    Hi, I'm Beth. I like the idea of NO Diet. It is life change. I am 45. Mother of 4 Grown Girls. Last one is 20. In College. I have lost 70 lbs. in the past year and I'd like to loose this last 20 lbs but I recently was caring for my father who died in the middle of March. So I was off track for a while. I'm glad to find some new friends to help me on my way. Hope you will be one. Add me to your friend list
