Welcome @momlb05. We got this!

@tweetsmom congrats on adding exercise to your routine. It is so hard to make myself do it. I am getting there though.

I understand completely @latineyes2. It is so hard to look at pictures and realize that is what my size looks like now. I have avoided so many functions because of it. When I started this journey, last week, I decided that I will not let this weight control me anymore. That's literally how I have felt. One step at a time.…

@ssmith661 the 'Clean plate club', is such a great point! I have been putting much smaller portions on my plate and using a small plate. This seems to help a lot, with portion control, for me.

@9bars my brother is getting married in May, also. Definately a huge motivator.

The holidays do make it harder @87chell congratulations on losing weight! I am finding my groove right now also. Staying focused seems easier with a support team.

@greeneyes998 I agree. Small changes can do great things!

@bianca616 Making ourselves a priority is so hard to do, when we have kids. I am realizing that being truly happy with ourselves, helps us to be even better parents. There are so many things that I have avoided going to, because of my weight. My son has even missed some friends birthday parties because of my own…

So glad to have you @hjlund

I am basically trying to stay under 1,300 calories. @midwest_siren I am making a lot of Weight Watchers meals and drinking Limu Lean. Hopefully this will continue to work.

@CindyWitter I am so glad to have this group, to help motivate each other. I am sorry to hear about your job. That is always hard. When one door closes....

Congrats on an amazing weight loss @JennieMaeK! That is amazing! Any tips?

Thank you @trevnik3bys! We got this! My family is actually loving that I am cooking more and trying new recipes.

@twosillycats I can totally relate. Sounds like we are going through very similar struggles. Thank you for sharing.

Thank you!! Congratulations on your weight loss! How did you do it? @1mumrevolution

Welcome to the group Camila! We can do this!

I am in! I am 42 years old. If I am being honest, I have about 70lbs to lose. I have gained about 50lbs, over the last 5 years. I am finally ready to do this. I am ready to feel like myself again and be healthy.
