Hi, Stacey. I have 15 lbs. to lose right now, but I was exactly where you are now. I had 50 lbs. to lose after the birth of my son 4 yrs ago. I was so depressed and tired, but I made up my mind that I was going to lose the weight and I did just that! In only 6 months. It wasn't easy. I worked out for an hour everyday and watched my sugar intake. It was so worth it. Of course, I must tell you that I have gained, lost, gained, lost, gained and lost a lot of that weight over the past 4 years. It's mostly been a battle to keep off this 10- 15 lbs. that seems to right at home on my butt! I am recommitting to taking it off today. I can't wait till the New Year to tell myself that I'll treat myself right. I need to seize the day and take control over my eating habits!
BTW I'm a SAHM of two and my husband wants to have another. I just can't bear the thought of having to lose another 50 (or more lbs.) after another pregnancy. If I can get my eating under control I may consider it, but even then the thought scares me... for many reasons besides the weight. I'm giving myself until May 2008 to decide. If you need support, just get into contact with me. I know how much a supportive person can impact your success.
