Hello,
I am a 32 year old mommy of 6 wonderful kids. I feel like I am not being the best mommy I can be at this weight. I get so tired out and don't want to go out to do things. I watch them play instead of playing with them... I am ready to get healthy and happy NOW! I just need a little support and encouragement and I think I can accomplish my goal. I have tons of weight to lose and I am just starting, but I am in this for the long haul.

I've found the best way to really get to know people and have them get to know me is through my blog. I've left comments for others ant they've come to my site...it seems to work well, and it gives me a place to post my sucesses, failures and frustrations.
And don't be shy...like at a family reunion--the shy starve!

Hello!

I am really wishing I had discovered this site at the beginning of my weight loss. Even coming in later in the game, it's so helpful and encouraging to see how people have met their goals and that other people struggle just like I do.

Good luck!!!

Hello and a warm welcome to you. Please feel free to contact me if you need to chat, my details are on my profile.

Good luck to you

I wanted to say Thanks to all of you for the encouraging words and for welcoming me here!

Hi, I am not new but I need friends and support too! You must be very busy indeed with 6 children! Finding time for myself is a challenge as it is and I only have 1 child! Best of luck.

Hi and welcome! This is one of the best websites I've ever been on! Jump on in - we all need support - and this is a great place to find it.

Hi,
you named one of the reason's I started this journey, wanting to be a better Mom, and really didn't think it was possible . there are some great groups here( I am at the 100lb one), and love it here. If I can do this anyone can.
