  • Reading your story is almost like reading my own! I’m almost 40, have a 5 year son, and a fiancé who’s been with me for 8 years. I’m a lot different than I was 8 years ago and not just my weight. I’m so tired all the time. My fiancé is a truck driver so a lot of the time it’s just me and my son. I feel horrible because I…
  • I'm from Wisconsin too! About 30 minutes North of Madison.
  • Thanks! That's kind of what I was thinking, but figured it didn't hurt to see if others had success with something like this. I've seen the metabolic typing diets before but had never tried any of them. I will stick with what I'm doing - I know that works! lol Might be slower, but I know it works! ;-)
  • I think kids at that age maybe don't really understand what "fat" really is. They just hear a lot about it and hear that it's not good to be fat. My 6 year old step son says he's fat all the time (which just like you're son, he is not!) and we correct him and tell him that he isn't fat. I think he just really doesn't…
  • My little boy is 2 months old - I think that still makes me a new mom, right? ;-) I was here before I got pregnant too and I let myself slide while I was pregnant. I'm ok with that, but now it's time to "pay the price"! I've got about 20 pounds to go to get back to where I was a year ago! Feel free to add me if you'd like!
  • I met Jerry Mathers ("The Beaver") when I was little - I thought that was pretty cool! I'm a country music girl...I've met the guys from Rascal Flatts more times than I can count this late at night, Jason Aldean, and Keith Anderson.
  • My OB told me at my first visit to not get caught in the "eating for two" trap. She said "don't eat more, eat healthier"...I wish I would have listened to her!
  • The "feeding tube" segment made me ill. I just don't see how this is a healthy long term solution!
  • Hi Matt! My name is Melissa and I also love food. Guess that's how I got into this mess in the first place, huh? Haha It would be easier if the food that was good for me tasted as good as the food that is bad for me. I honestly struggle with this on an hourly basis!
  • Hi! I had my son 2 months ago. I gained almost 60 pounds during pregnancy. Before I found out I was pregnant I was on a healthy track, losing weight and being really active. Unfortunately even though I swore I wouldn't, once I found out there was a baby in me, most of that went out the window! I'm now down 20 pounds but…
  • Hi-ya! I'm from Wisconsin!! Probably a little more north than you (I live in Beaver Dam, which is about 30 miles north of Madison or 30 miles south of Fond du Lac if that helps with my location!) I'd love more WI friends if you'd like to add me! :-)
  • Hello, I'm new here (well, kind of - was here before a few years ago too but I'm back and ready to take charge!). I've been hearing A LOT about this visalus program (I think -is it the same as Body By Vi?). I can't seem to find any real answers about what it's about without being directed to talk to a distributor. I would…
  • This was just what I needed! You all look AMAZING! I just had my son 2 months ago and I've been feeling pretty down about the "new" shape of my body. It's SO inspiring to see what other moms have been able to accomplish and gives me great motivation and hope that I can get back to where I want to be! Thank you all for…
