Default Hi

Hi! My name is Ashley, Im 25 and about 60 pounds overweight. I have two beautiful children. My oldest is severely handicapped and my youngest recieved a liver transplant when she was 8 months old. Needless to say I never have had much time take care of me. But things are calm now, everyone is in good health and I am ready to drop this weight and leave it in my past. HELP!

Wow, Ashley! You have been through a lot. Do you have good family support? It can be really hard as moms to make time for ourselves, especially with the issues your children face, but it is so essential to do so. The healthier you are, the more energy you'll have to meet all of your obligations. I'm so glad you're here!!

Surf around and settle in! We have subforums based on age, nutrition plan, exercise and more.

Ashley, you have certainly been through a lot already in your 25 years.
As you faced those trials, you can succeed in this one.
Welcome!
