in Introduce Yourself
Hi - I am new to MFP. I have been using the site for about 1 week now and LOVE it! Ready to make some life changes and never look back. I have two kids - a boy and a girl and don't want my weight problems to become their weight problems. I have 100+ pounds to lose and know that this is not going to be easy - I have already seen a nice drop, but we all know that after the first 2/3 weeks, the large drops in weight end and the real challenges begin.

I am looking for some friends to support me on this journey. Looking to be there for each other during the highs (meaning good days ;-) and lows.
