Disappointed in myself and need help

  • I am a really upbeat person and do not get down often. I worked really hard a few years back and lost a bunch of weight! I went from a sz 22/24 to a sz 12. We 5 yrs and 2 babies later the weight has been creeping back! After I had my first daughter I got back in shape pretty quick. After my 2nd daughter 8 months ago I have done terrible!! I need to lose about 40-50 lbs.

    I have started doing weight watcher, although I am not attending the meetings I know the program well. I am also starting the 30 day shred tomorrow.

    I am just so sad. I feel like I have just let myself go. I want to be a positive example for my girls and show them being healthy is important and I need to lead by example. I guess I am here looking for a diet buddy. Someone I can email or facebook with to just chat, share, laugh with while we meet our goals together.

    I really need to do this, I really want to make these changes in my life. I have these 2 little amazing blessings and I do not want to be winded running up the steps!! I want to be the fun mom playing kick ball!

    If there is anyone who wants a diet buddy to meet goals with please let me know. I really feel like I would be more motivated with a buddy who is going through the same things! LOL I am not normally this much of a drag!! I am very upbeat with a great sense of humor. I am a SAHM and am 32.

    Thanks for listening
  • Hi there!

    I'm going to suggest that you join a daily accountability thread here at 3FC. Any one .... moms, 30-somethings, ww ... Just make sure you join one and then come and read everyday. You can have literally dozens of buddies who support and encourage you.
  • thanks for the suggestion!! Will do that
  • Hi Tina!! You ARE being a great example for your girls! You've set a goal, have a healthy, doable plan, and you are going to reach your goal. That is AWESOME!!!
  • I've always wanted to buddy up, you can PM me if you like! I am also SAHM and 28.

    Don't worry! You can and will do this!
