Cheers from past 300lb Club Member

Cheers. I am now at 270lb and was a member of the lovely 300lb club. They had terrible benefits so I decided to play in the 200lb club for awhile. :) My current goal is to get to 170lbs. That was post Baby1.

My biggest challenge has been lack of willpower and a crazy sweet tooth! Cakes, cookies, MmmmmMMmmmMMm

But recently saw a picture of myself and was like.. WOAH! Slammed on the brakes and decided to turn around. Seriously. I have young kids and it's embarrassing for me quite honestly. Don't want my kids to be ashamed of me.

So, there ya go. Now it's time to get to work and do something my kids can really respect me for.

Cheers

    Hi there, read your post and I feel the exact same. I'm a 43 year old mother of 3 with 80lbs to lose. My girls friends all say " my god your mom is so great" but I'd just feel better if I lost the weight. My girls always tell me how beautiful I am and I know they mean what they say but I just feel embarressed for them to have a mother who's obese.

    Please feel free to add me and we can end this struggle together!
