Hello! I'm with ya - I need to stay motivated. I'll try to keep up with my food diary, but right now I'm just focusing on meeting my exercise goals. Taking it one day at a time :)

I'm in the same boat you are - in my 30's with two kids ages 3 and 2. I realize I'm not in any of the pictures - have no desire to be looking like this. I dread anytime I'm 'tagged' on facebook!
