Default Hello from a NEWBIE!!

So, today is my first day here and I wanted to introduce myself. My name is Angela, I am 26. Happily married for almost 3 yrs. I have 2 boys Anthony,7,and Alex,2. Also, my husband has 2 girls Madison,3, and Kaydance,2. Who live with their mother! I am a SAHM. My husband is currently in Iraq and will be there for another 12-15 months. He has been there for almost 3 months. I decided to loose as much weight as I can while he is gone. He makes me feel good about myself which makes me have no motivation to loose any weight lol. I posted my pics in the pics blog.
I hope to meet some people and get some motivation.

Angela - Welcome to 3FC!! This is a great place for support. The 300+ chat thread can move fast, but don't be intimidated to jump in. You don't have to do personals and you don't have to remember everyone - please just feel free to join in.

It must be really tough for you to have four children to take care of with your DH off in Iraq. Not only must you be constantly worried about his safety, you probably don't get a lot of time to yourself. When you start, even small changes can make a big difference. Do you have a specific plan you are following?

well thanks for the replies! I need to clarify I only take care of my 2 boys. My step-daughters live with their mom. But, no I am just counting calories and walking as much as my lazy legs will let me every single day.

Welcome Angela and Jenny! This is a great place, and we really understand the challenges you're dealing with weight wise. Though it must be hard to have your husband gone for so long!

Welcome! You certainly have your hands full. It must be hard to have your husband away for so long.
