Hi! My name is Lisa and I am a SAHM from NJ. I am looking for support to help me lose some weight and just be overall healthier! I have 4 kids but have become a SAHM in the past 2 years and am struggling with the open access to food and snacking. At the moment I am counting calories and just started Jillian Michaels 30 day shred. Looking forward to meeting you all.
Hi Lisa!
Sounds like you're ready to go with a good plan in place - good luck with your goals - we'll all be here to cheer you on!
Glad to have you join us! There are lots & lots of different groups and forums - I'm sure you'll find some that will keep you motivated, inspired and entertained! You'll also find info and first hand advice on different plans to help choose the one that's right for you.
There are bunches of people here with more to lose and some with less - the bottom line is that we all have to do it a day at a time. The good thing is that we'll have lots of company along the way.
I've only been here a short time myself, having NEVER been part of an online forum. What has been so eye-opening is how much it has helped me. Whenever I feel overwhelmed or defeated, I just log on and read some of the success stories, complete with their before & after photos - or read about others still dealing day to day with their challenges - and before I know it, the time has flown by and so have all the thoughts of cheating or giving up.
So welcome - you've found the right place - join in by inspiring us and being inspired!
