Hi there everyone...

I'm so happy to be HERE. I've been doing so much research online for varying things and have come across the 3FC's site numerous times. Recently though - I just realized they had THIS. A community of other people... just like lil ole me!

Anyways... I'm Shauna... I'm 37. I'm a single mother of 2 girls (ages 17 & 15). I never did lose all the baby weight after my last child. Instead... over the past 15 years, I managed to gain and gain. I've said so many times that "this is it". I'm losing it all! I'd set dates and goals and ugh... I guess I was never all that serious about it - because I stayed FAT for all those years. A little over a year ago I managed to lose almost about 20 odd lbs and while I was thrilled with it - I still felt lousy. I would have chronic health problems and I'm sure many can be attributed to the weight. Since January, I've lost almost 12 lbs and already I notice a vast difference in how I feel. I'm completely determined to get rid of what's been weighing me down.

My goals this time around aren't just to lose the weight. I want to be HEALTHY... and I want to have ENERGY. Weight loss is just an added bonus.

I chose the name "momentum" - I hope for obvious reasons... I'm trying to move forward and keep moving forward.

Looking forward to reading and getting to know everyone on the boards!

You've come to the right place for help and support. I'm new here myself and have found everyone to be fabulous!

Best to you!

PS I have a 17 year old too - the last one at home. Off to St. John's next fall - then - no kids at home! Guess the grandbabies will have to move in!!!

Hi Shauna!



Congratulations on the weight you've lost so far! So glad to see that you feel better already ^^ Make sure you have a look around, check out the 30-somethings, and post wherever you're comfortable!

Best of success!

Hi ladies;

Thank you so much for the warm welcome. I'm thrilled to have this available to me & plan on taking a closer look at all the threads over the next few days.

Karen... I can't even imagine having grandkids yet. Although, so far... my eldest daughter promises she's going to wait until she's in her mid 20's to even think about marriage & kids. I'm sure I thought that too though - hehe
