hi, my name is Angie I am a mom to 3 kids ages 10,9 & 9.I lost 135 pounds but have managed to gain about half of that back(I say guess because I don't actually dare to step on the scales). I started my diet 3 days ago and yesterday found this websight.I think if I could chat with others in the same situation it will help alot.I am looking forward to meeting everyone.

Okay, i just weighed in and I weigh 206.5 pounds,aaahhhh!!! I am going to lose it.

I am new here as well. I see that two of your kids are 9, so I can only assume twins...? I also have twins. Mine are boys, age three. I am still packing around all the weight I gained with them, plus about 10 more pounds. That puts me at 236. Yuck.

What are you doing to lose? Here's my plan: 30-45 minute walk everyday (or as often as possible), limiting my carbohydrates, yoga in the a.m., and suppressing my love for fast food.

Good luck to you! Hope to hear successful things from you in the future!
