Unhappy Im back and heavier then ever!

I am not really good at introducing myself but here goes. I am a 25 yo SAHM to a 15 mo girl. I joined 3 fat chicks at the end of last year after finding the book at Barnes and Nobel. I was doing good on WW and then I just quit. I dont know why I guess just daily stress and I didnt want to deal with it. I got on my scale today and am just discusted with myself. Am I really that big? I am ashamed I let myself get like this. I just haven't lost my baby weight. The only problem is she isnt a baby anymore. I need to quit making excuses. I now have 40 lbs to lose. It feels almost impossible. I have looked around the site and I see so many people successful. You are my inspiration!!! Tomarrow I am going to start calorie counting I just don't know how many I need. I am 5'4 and 150 lbs. Does anyone know where I can find out? Thank you anyone who read this long rambling post.

Then you'll come along with us to the calorie counters threads and make yourself at home. In every back slide there are lessons learn. You are much smarter than last time.

Come to the chatty calorie counters thread, that'll cheer you up and help you on you way.

Hi Hope,
I can't actually remember where I first found a calorie recommendation, but I just wanted to say welcome to 3fatchicks and if I did it, so can you! Our stats are almost the same - my highest was 160, at 5'5...the only differance is that I am now below my goal, and you are on your way. Good luck!

Just a dreamy1 - Thank you. What a motivation it is to see someone who has all ready got to where I am going! If you don't mind my asking, How did you do it?

Mamato4under5 - Oh my and I thought I had my hands full with my little monkey! My hat is off to you. You must be busy busy busy but having a blast with all your little ones. 75lbs will be gone before you know it. Are you on any specific plan?

Well Thank you ladies again for the warm welcome!
