Looking for support... - 3 Fat Chicks on a Diet Weight Loss Community

ShellMack · 08-10-2005, 02:17 PM

My name is Shelly, I am 33 and I am a stay at home mom of 3 wonderful kids. I have twin 10yr old boys and my princess is 5.

I was very athletic in HS until taking a job that required 8hrs of sitting, carrying twins and having many surgeries for health problems after their birth. I have never been thin in my life and honestly, don't have that goal in mind. I am looking to feel healthier, have less back pain and to stay in my kids lives for a very long time.

I am working on changing my eating habits and adding exercise back into my life. I recently lost 30lbs, had a stressful move, stress with my hubby, became ill and have gained it all back. So...for now, I am working on getting back on track and need some support. I came across this site and everyone seems so helpful and nice. I am hoping to find some buddies for support and for me to be accountable to.

Best Wishes,

Shelly

Shelly,

Hi, thought I'd write. I'd love to be buddies. I am married, mom to three kids (ages 12 1/2, 10 and 8 1/2). I work as a receptionist. I joined WW in January and was doing great losing from 260.4 down to 226 lbs. but have missed several meetings and am back up to 237 lbs. I could kick myself for falling off the wagon and messing up, but now I'm finding it SO HARD to get back on track and start losing again. But I'm ready to get with it and lose this weight once and for all. So if you'd like to be buddies please feel free to email me at jordyn1968 at hotmail.com or message me ifyou have yahoo messenger my user name is jordyn1968.

Thanks,

Anna in Ohio

Thanks JustforUs and Anna for the replies.

Anna, I would love to chat with you. On yahoo my messenger name is shellmack99. Let's do be buddies. I am not doing WW but am staying low fat and low carb as much as possible. I am trying not to get on the scale everyday as it gives me a lot of anxiety if I haven't lost poundage. I am weighing in on Saturdays, does that work for you? My e-mail is [email protected] so feel free to e-mail and I will respond.

Hugs,

Shelly in Oregon
