Hi, I am new here and am looking for some friends to help me get and stay motivated. I am 33 and have 4 kids, my oldest is 14 and youngest is 4. In November 1998 I was overweight and tired of it. I got myself in gear and by October 1999 I had lost 80 pounds and was a size 10. In November 1999 I found out I was pregnant with child # 3. When he was 3 months old and I a size 14 I got pregnant with child # 4. I gave up on trying to stay healthy. After # 4 I was a size 16 and am now in 18's & 20's. This morning when I was trying to find something to wear to work I came across a pair of my size 10 jeans. WOW what a reailty check. I want to cry. I have lost 9 pounds in the past couple of months and thought I was doing good, but to see those jeans it makes me sick of myself.

Don't worry, you'll get there again. Just stay positive. This is a great place for support

Hi and

You can eat healthy and get the weight off. Just be determined and work at it. There's a lot of support here at 3FC.

Wishing You The Best

Thanks for the encouragement, I really need it. Haven't done bad so far today. I think if I have people to talk to everyday and a place to go for support it will make a big difference, that's why I joined 3FC.
