My name is Maria and I'm a 27 year old mother of 3, my youngest is 6 months old. I've been looking around this website for the past two days and I LOVE IT!!! Especially the low-fat recipes! I can't wait to try them out.
I've been overweight my whole life and after I had my son, I was the heaviest I've ever been at 282 pounds. I started my "diet" on March 14, 2005 and as of April 1 I've lost 18 pounds. I'm not doing any particular diet, per se. I eat only three meals a day, moniter everything that I put in my mouth, drink lots of water and exercise everyday for at least 30 mins, but usually more. We recently joined the YMCA and it's the greatest. I find myself there everyday taking Pillates and Step and especially using the treadmill. I look forward to making new friends and sharing success stories. You can read more about me in my profile.
