hey. i'm a mother of 4 (7 year old daughter and 4 year old triplets) and i'm still holding onto the "baby fat". i'm hoping to loose 20-25 lbs with the help of south beach plan!
Hi TheHammer!
You have your hands full, whew! - sounds like you're off to a great start with a good plan - the support you need is here to achieve your goal - we'll all be here to cheer you on.
Glad to have you join us! There are lots & lots of different groups and forums - I'm sure you'll find some that will keep you motivated and inspired - you'll be a wonderful addition to any of them. Try the SouthBeach forum and the weight loss support forums, they're active and very helpful - also the Success stories are a must for motivation.
There are bunches of people here with more to lose and some with less - the bottom line is that we all have to do it a day at a time. The good thing is that we'll have lots of company along the way.
I've only been here since last fall, having NEVER been part of an online forum. What has been so eye-opening is how much it has helped me. Whenever I feel overwhelmed or defeated, I just log on and read some of the success stories, complete with their before & after photos - or read about others still dealing day to day with their challenges - and before I know it, the time has flown by and so have all the thoughts of going off track or giving up. It has made all the difference in my success so far.
So welcome - you 've found the right place - join in by inspiring us and being inspired!
thanks everyone! yes- the triplets are boy,boy,girl and they are a handful!
me and my hubby started south beach 1/4/10 and i'm down 3lb and he's down 5lb. it's fun changing our eating habits together!
