I'm new to posting things, but not new to trying to lose weight. I lost 12lbs back through November. Had a welcome accident of getting pregnant, but sadly miscarried just over 2 weeks ago. So got the doctor ok and now trying to get back up and get motivated to lose weight again and get healthy to maybe try again to get pregnant at a later time when I'm healthier. I'm using Lent, I know that probably sounds bad(I am Catholic), but I'm using Lent to help start anew. Giving up all fast food, it's time to give up the comfort food. My hubby and I are both working together on this together. So good luck to everyone, and I'm ready to lose it!

Sorry about the miscarriage (I had some myself); good idea to focus on getting healthier and it's so much nicer that your DH is doing it with you too ... this is a great place; you'll like it here!

Hollysmom. welcome, glad to have you join us. I'm sorry about the miscarriage, but I feel Lent is a good way to start. I suggest you look for a Challenge or Support group to join; small check-in groups make it easier to connect, get involved, and be accountable. We have groups centering around specific diet plans, themes, or age groups, so find one that inspires you and just post to join.
