My Story

Hello Posters (old and new).

I will begin by introducing myself and sharing a little about me.

I am a 34 year old working mom of two boys, ages 6 and 3.

I have learned to enjoy exercise, unfortunately I also enjoy food a little too much as well.

Over time I have realized that food is my comfort and it is where I turn to when I am tired, bored, stressed, sad, antsy, frustrated, etc. This kind of "stress relief" has added 30 lbs to my 4'11" frame, and it's all in the middle.

I have chosen the user name Summer_2005, because it is a reminder of what I am capable of doing. In the Summer of 2005, when my second born was almost a year, I had shed ALL of my pregnancy weight, plus ALL of my left-over pregnancy weight from number one, plus an extra 5 lbs. I was at the top of my game when suddenly life shot me a curve ball and food became my outlet. It is now 2 years later and I am finally ready to move on, but I need some support and a little push, so here I am, to support and encourage those that need it, and to find a little for myself as well.

I look forwarding to getting to know you.
 
Welcome, Summer! Thanks for sharing your story; I hope you are able to find as much inspiration, motivation and support here as I have!
