I am in such need of doing something about my weight...My daughter who is 4 starts school next week and I am going to be the over weight mother...I don't want that...I want my daughter to be proud of me and I want me to feel better about myself..Anyone want to be my buddy? I am starting by eating less and walking more...I currently weigh 225lbs and I am 5'7....I really need help and motivation to keep me going....

Support we can provide, motivation comes from within you -- so remind yourself as to why you want to lose weight and you will get there...

Do some reading around the forums for nutrition info and workout info and do ask any questions that you have.

Welcome to your diary and enjoy your stay
 
Hi Krissy! I remember when my son started pre-school I was the fat mom too. It was depressing because I was outcasted, of course. I'm not the slim blonde soccer mom like the rest. But you know what, my son loves me regardeless and so will your daughter. Mal is right, motivation comes from within, but I think if you read through some of the longer diaries you'll find that motivation in you. I've been reading some of the really long diaries and the first thing you realize is, this isn't a diet, its a lifestyle. The people that are successful are living the life. Good luck!
 
hey there.

nice to meet you !!

Motivation is something i think i have, its self control i have trouble with. I think " oh one fry wont hurt etc ', then i beat myself up for the next week ! But thats all changing now.

Just think about the fact you want to be healthy for our children, and inspire them to eat well and look as awesome as their mom does !

Yesterday i ordered a VERY hot black dress thats wayyyy too small for me, when it arrives im going to hang it up and look at it everyday, and im hoping it motivates me to work extra hard so i can fit in it :)

Good luck on your weight loss travels ! Whats your goal weight?
 
Thank you for your support...I am trying so hard - I really want to lose 75lbs...I weigh 225 now and hope to get to 150...but I would be happy with 180...
