Hi, I'm new...sort of
Hello,
I found this site in Sept 04 when I decided to make a lifestyle change. Well, needless to say I found out that same month that I was pregnant with my 2nd daughter!! Sooo.....I put the lifestyle change on hold for a little while, ok maybe more then a little while since my youngest will be 1 in 2 days!
Anyway, I have been eating healther and exercising since the end of March. I had a rude awakening one day when I caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror and couldn't believe how big I had gotten!! It was a BIG wake-up call!! I know that I have lost some weight because some of my clothes are looser. I haven't even weighed myself though, because honestly I didn't want to even know the number. Now I am wondering if that was a mistake though because at least it would have given me some idea of where I stand. I do take my measurements once a month though and those are getting smaller, so that is good news.
I have been reading this forum almost daily now since I started my lifestyle change. You all have giving me motivation and you seem like a great support system. I figured that I would try and start posting along with you. My oldest daughter will be 4 next month and like I said my other daughter is almost 1. They are one of the biggest reasons why I want to lose this extra weight. I am only 31 and I want to be around for them for a long time. I also want to be able to play with them without feeling so darned sluggish all the time.
I hope to get to know everyone better. Take care
Jen
