Hi ! I really don't no what to say, let me start by saying that I'm a 25 yr old mother of a two yr old boy, and that I struggling with my weight and have been for about seven yrs but I'm at my larges which is 298!!! YES! 298! I'm so tired of looking like this and feeling like this it just seems so hard to do. I'm getting over a really bad break up so to easy my broken heart I've been eating for the last 8 months. I've realized that the over eating is causing me to stay in this rut of maddness. So two days ago I cut back on my eating and my son and I dance for 20 min.every night I don't know what kind of difference this with make but it's worth a try, when I stop and look at myself I see me hurting myself by eating my life away, my son deserves to have a health beautiful mama A broken heart won't kill me I'm getting over that, but if I don't make a change for the better my weight will kill me I'm looking for some buddies to help me along so pleas responded.

Welcome 2thick. {{{ HUGS }}}

My heart goes out to you. I have lived through the pain of a breakup and it is not easy. But you sound like you are getting yourself back on the right track.

I think it is great how you dance with your son for 20 minutes.
That is not only great for your weight loss efforts it is also good for both of your spirits and will be a bonding experience your son will always have fond mmemoriies of. You can also put him in a stroller and take long walks with him too. Kids love to do exercise tapes too. They have much more energy than we do...plus you will be teaching him good habits from the very beginning.

There are many many groups here in 3FC that would love to have you join in. I belong to 300+ and Ready to try again. Not all of us are 300's ..we come in all shapes and sizes. We would love to have you join in. I recommend you read all of the different groups and just jump in one. You can belong to several groups or just float among all of them.... but there is something nice about belonging to a group. Kind of like the warm fuzzies. But no matter which group you join... they all will welcome you with open arms.

You sound like a very strong woman that has been going through some tough times. Come lean on us while you get your life back on the right track.
