New to MFP

Options
I am a 34 year old wife and mother of 2(5yr boy/3yr girl) I have a very irregular diet I only eat 3 meals a day and dont exercise that much other than chasing kids and dog around the house, sometimes walking but nothing too major. I have lost 26 lbs in the last year mainly due to stress, now I want to lose weight the healthy way. Please support me on my new journey and I will do the same for you. All helpful tips and welcome...:wink:

    I too am a mother of 2 (9 & 5). I recently started using MFP again. I am in the same boat, and recently lost 20 lbs to due to stress. I am below my goal weight now, but started using this to track my calorie intake. I also feel like its time for a change. Prior to this, I didn't exercise, except chasing kids. Now I am trying to do things to make me feel better and make me more physically fit.
    So feel free to add me if you want and good luck.

    I"m new as well. I am a wife and mother to two children boy and girl. Last summer I lost 6 pant sizes simply from walking. I gained some of that back due to being inactive during the winter since I'm a stay at home mom. I want to get back into the clothes I started buying last summer.
