Hi everyone! I am new I am Missy, mom to 4 kids. Jacob (6 1/2), Savannah (4 1/2) Zachary (3) and Emileigh (9 months). I had my tubes tied in Feb and am ready to get back into shape!! I am going on a cruise next summer and I am NOT walking around a cruise ship in the shape I am in..LOL!

I am not sure of all the lingo here so I will try and pick it up!

My CW is 175 and I would like to get to 135. I am in size 12 jeans. I want to tone up and look not so much like a MOMMY! LOL

Anyhoo...I am looking forward to meeting you all and looking for a weight loss buddy!

BTW..I am in Tx

Hi Missy,

I am Kathy....also a mommy to young ones.....mine are 5 and 4, we had been trying for #3 for the past 2 1/2 yrs to no avail.....anyway....here I am.....at my highest weight ever...hmmm happens to be the same weight I was at 9 months prego with #2!! 188, I think? our scale is broken.....and I am too scared to buy a new one!!!

We are also going on a cruise in 2005......most likely November......and I want to be able to look half way decent!!!!

My goal is 135 lbs as well. Maybe we can be buddies in our quest for decent cruising bodies!!

ooops gotta change my sig...this was the one from when I first joined almost 3 years ago.......ugh gained 20 lbs since then....how disgusting!

Hello, to both of you. I feel like I am about the same as both of you.
I have 3 girls, ages 6, 4 and 14 months. But, I am going on a cruise this
November. I started watching what I am eating on Sep 22.
I exercise everyday at home between treadmilling it or exercise tapes.
I am 5 ft 1", and currently weigh 176.0. What kind of diet are you all on?
Or are you doing the same thing, just watching what you eat?
I have found this sight very supporting and welcoming. I just joined this week also.
We can just all give each other support, when needed.

Amy

SW 188.5 on sep 22

It's me again!! I forgot to ask the two of you, which cruises are
you going on. We are going on the Disney 4 night.
Talk to you all soon.
Amy

It is soo nice to meet you both! I have IM please look me up if you get a chance

I am going to Weight Watchers now. However I am thinking of doing metabolic Research here. My SIL lost 60+ lbs in about 6 months on it. I am one of those that gets to a weight and stays there..it makes me nuts! I think if I can lose the weight I will not have such a hard time keeping it off. I hope I am a nursing mom so I have to watch everything I do with dieting!

We are also going on the Disney 4 night! I cant wait! We did the Disney Cruise back in May 96 for our Honeymoon and so I will love it even more now that I can take my kids with me

I will Private message you 2 and give you my email so we can chat! If I can figure out private messageing..LOL
