Want to introduce myself!

  • Hi! My name is Jenn. I'm a 23 year old, mother of 2 from the pacific northwest! My mission for today was to find a weightloss board for support and guidance, as tomorrow I will begin my journey to lose! I weighed myself this morning and I'm starting at 195.3lbs. I have a 9 1/2 month old little boy, and I weighed *ashamed* 187 when I left the hospital with him, and I got down to 182 before I stopped nursing him at 6 months. And I've been gaining since (with a few 4 or 5 lb losses and gains mixed in). I am an emotional eater, a late night snacker... those are my weaknesses. I am really at a point where I am slowly creeping up on 200 and I have never been there (except when pregnant) before and I am not about to start! So I hope to find some support, ideas and maybe even form some new friendships along the way. My goal weight is 130-140. I'm not sure yet. But my intial goal is 170 by September 7. We're going on an anniversary trip (5 years) and I want to be more comfortable in my bathing suit!

    Nice novel huh?
