Hi I my name is Amy. I am a 28 yr old mother of three. ages 8, 2, and 6 mo. They are three beautiful girlies!!! I am 5' 2" and weigh I think about 170 lbs. I do not know for sure do to the fact I have been in denial about being a "fat chick" for many years now. I recently went to get in the shower and caught a glimps of my nakedness in the mirror and was completly mortified. So in the last few days I have decided to change my life!! I have started to change the way I eat and think about food. I think I am horribly addicted to food because it has been a hard week. I started monday doing 40 min of workouts a day. Cardio pilates and 1-1/2 mile walking workout on the on demand service on digital cable. It is called exercise T.V. I really like it because I can do it anytime I am ready and don't have to plan things around fit t.v. and their schedule. I have an awesome support team from my sister (who I told about this site and she joined today and joined Curves!! I am so proud of her.) and my best freind who 6 mo. ago had gastric bipass and is doing fabulous!! so I know they are working out and pushes me to work out as well. My husband everyday this week has called and asks me if I have worked out. He always sounds very excited and tells me he is proud, but also wants to remind me he loves me and thinks I am "hot" to him at any size!!! smart man!! lol My 8 yr old told me tonight she would workout with me if I wanted her too. She also told me I was just medium!!! lol she is the sweetest. So I came to find this wonderful site by searching for info on a healthy life and diet and exercise. The name to be honest caught my attention. They have everything I need. yeah the search is over, I swear my computer hates me!!! So Hello to everyone I hope to come to know you well!!! thank you for your time to read my story...amyz
