Hi everybody!!!

I am new here as well. From Western Massachusetts, single mom extraordinaire. Still carrying around that pregnancy weight and my little buddy is 3!!! LOL I've struggled with weight and food issues since I was 12. Just when I thought I had it conquered...BAM!!! Pregnant! Kind of gave up at that point and ate what I wanted, when I wanted (and enjoyed it too!!) Recently, I have begun making much better food choices.

I have begun exercising much more. Down 10 pounds so far...have a bit more to go. For me, and I'm sure that there are others like me, it's not about the number I see on the scale....it's about how I feel, how my clothes feel on my body, and what I see when I look in the mirror.

Looking forward to posting with all of you! Seems like a fun bunch. It's nice to see a community that is this supportive in the strive for a healthier lifestyle! I'm glad to be a part of it. Talk to you all very soon!!

Greetings from Albany, NY -- nice to see someone "near by". You sound very ready for this and you are doing a great job!! My sister tried to help me by pointing out "I'm overweight because I had kids", mine are 7 and 4 (and I was overweight way before the boys came!!) so I can't use that excuse!! I love this website, there are so many interesting individuals and conversations going on and 100's of success stories, I think you'll like it too. When I'm at my lowest I come on and read a few threads and get my "3FC's therapy session" and I'm back on track.
