Serious about losing this weight!
Hey all! Been lurking for a week or two and decided to join up today! Just a bit about me:
I'm 29 and have two kids (daughter, 4mo; stepson; 12yr). I'm weighing in today at 245, 10 lbs under my pre-pregnancy weight. 5 years ago I weighed 180, 6 years ago I weighed 160. I want to get back to those numbers!
I have PCOS (anovulatory, IR) - I suspect I've always had it, but I wasn't diagnosed until I was 24. My husband and I went through 3 years of fertility treatments before we conceived our miracle!
I'm loving every day of being a new mommy, but I know I need to get healthy - for me and for my family.
Somewhere on here I saw a recommendation for sparkpeople.com. I've been using that site to track my cals/carbs/fat/protein/fiber intake for the past week. Doing well, I only cheated on one meal for Father's Day (haha). My husband is doing the "diet" with me (he is pre-diabetic and with my PCOS we both need a similar diet plan), so that has helped alot.
Anyway, I'm excited to be on this journey and I know it's going to be hard to stick with it, so that's why I'm here - looking for support and motivation to keep me going!
