I'm new here and looking for support and a place where I can freely ask questions if I have them.

I'm a 34 year old mother who has always been overweight from what I recall! I have two children (12 & 8) up until having children I was comfortable with my size. I was about a size 16 then...now wearing a size 24. From the time I got pregnant until now I have gained between 100-120 lbs and need to loose it. I didn't gain much during my pregnancies but was after that this all happened.

I turn 35 next month and made a commitment to my kids, husband and most of all myself. By the time I turn 40 I want to be healthy and fit! I also have a goal to run 40 races in these next 5 years...not big races but even just 5km races in our community and surrounding areas.

I look forward to peeking around and finding the support I have been looking for all of this time
