A Mom that needs to take care of herself!
Hello all! I started Myfitnesspal ten days ago at 36 years old, 220 pounds. I have weighed over 200 since my first baby at 22. Now, seven more children later, I still do. I find I spend all my time taking care of my kids, my husband, my home- and I have really neglected my health. Then, my 58 year-old, overweight, diabetic…
