Hello everyone. I am a 33 year old mother of two boys. I have been consistently gaining weight since my youngest was born. He was very sickly and in and out of the hospital. Over the course of two years I gained so much weight from the stress and eating on the go. He is finally healthy and on the right track and I need to conquer my weight gain. Last year I lost thirty pounds and put on forty. I realize I can't do it alone so that's why I'm here.

Hey there !!
Losing weight I think is sooo much easier when you have a group of supportive people! and the best thing about this is you get that, AND !! it's free ! I'm sure many people will keep you motivated ! I understand about losing weight and then gaining it back plus some ! It ALWAYS happens to me too ! I have a one year old son, and I know as soon as I loose all my weight, I'm going to gain it all back by getting pregnant AGAIN ! hopefully by then my life style would of changed and I can still work out ! I am happy to hear your son is healthy or at least doing lots better. I can only imagine how difficult it was and I understand that all you could do is focus on your child ! but at least now you're focusing a bit more on yourself ! that's good news ! Anyways ! Keep up your awesome work !! If you have the ability to be such a good mom, then I think you have the ability to work off those unwanted pounds !! Good luck !! & I am always here to cheer you on !! Take care !

Welcome
Welcome, Kristi! I'm a 37 yr old mother of two boys also - 4 & 6 yrs. I know what it's like to gain the weight due to pregancy and then struggle to get it off once the little ones have arrived. I can only imagine how much more difficult it must have been when you were also dealing with a sick child. I'm not sure there is anything more stressful than watching your child suffer. I'm so glad to hear that he is recovering!!!
You've definitely got the right attitude to start your journey! If there is one thing I've learned over the last year it's that if I don't take care of myself I'm not going to be in any condition to take care of anyone else so I'd better get my act together.
I hope you find the message boards here motivational. I've lost some weight previously and one of the ways I did it was through message boards like these. It really does help to know that you are not alone, that there are others who struggle with the same issues you do and to share ideas as to how to overcome them and succeed in losing weight.
If you are looking for a "buddy" mom to help support and share with - count me in!
Take care and keep us posted on how you are doing!!!
