Hi I just heard about this website from a woman at the gym today, I guess she has been coming here awhile and she looks fantastic!!!
I have four sons, all 5 1/2 yrs apart, and actually got down to comforable weight after first:smile: , great weight after second:happy: and comfortable weight after third:smile: , but I am having so much problems losing it after the last one:mad: , I am 43, and this is the heaviest I have been non pregnant, well except for before I started going to the gym a yr ago, but have only lost about 12 lbs, 15 on a good day.
I have been so frustrated, giving up all my favorite snacks is hard as you all know, but I have been good, and if I have to buy chips or snacks for the kids I make sure to get something I would not touch with a ten foot pole.

  • Welcome.....and I am back again!! And Mike hey thanks for the rules post!! I'm new but I'm not so to speak. I am one of them bad people who eat healthy and excersise for a month or so then quit for a few months then start again. I had a scare over the weekend (not the first time for a scare either) but once again I have decided I am going to change how I live my life. This time i feel more committed. My hubby even went out and purchased a tredmill for me that I have been using daily. I'm gonna do it this time!!!
