Hey everyone! I'm Amber and I am married to a wonderful man and have 2 kids-a DD who is 8, and a DS who is 5. I'm new here but I've been heavy all my life. I started trying to lose weight after my son was born in 2003, but did not get serious until March of last year. I've lost about 30 lbs since then and have lost 2 jean sizes. I was on Depo Provera for over 4 years and I did not realize how much it had completely changed my personality until I got off of it. I'm amazed my poor hubby did not divorce me and my entire family disown me!
I have a problem staying motivated if I go off of my routine for a couple of days or if I am sick I have a problem getting back on it. I am a stress eater and can be high strung at times. I work from home and am a Brownie leader for my daughter's troop. My current program is tracking my calories and eating the correct portions and I am using SparkPeople to track my calories and blog, and I have a Wii fit I got for Christmas for working out.
Edit: I came here to find the support I feel I need that I have not found anywhere else.
