My name is Sarah. I have 3 children and have been battling with my weight ever since my first pregnancy. At one point I have been heavier than what I am now, but my goal is to get back down to a more manageable weight. I am unhappy with my body. After having my first child, I joined weight watchers and was able to go from 176 lbs to 142 lbs. It felt amazing, but after having my second child, I couldn't afford to go to the meetings and trying to do it on my own wasn't working. I joined 3FC because it is heart-warming to read success stories and it seems like a wonderful place to stay focused, motivated and to get a little pick-me-up when needed. My overall goal is to be between 140 and 150, but at this point I will be happy with getting under 200.
I lost some of the 100 pounds weight weight gain of my second pregnancy which was twins with WW. After 60 pounds I stopped WW and gained about 20 pounds back. I am once again trying to lose and have about 60 pounds to lose to get to goal.
This time round I am just eating healthy and exercising. I am not attending WW meetings, but you can use what you learned in WW about portions and eating, and use the WW recipes without going to meetings. I do this frequently.
Yes, this is an awesome place for support and motivation!
We have a thread under the 100lb. club sub forum called 'getting out of the two teens into onederland' if you're interested. Just a bunch of us trying to get under 200! It's a nice place for support.
You can do it, just stick with it! We are all here doing it together!
