Ok well im a mother of three. Kaylee is five, Joey is three, and my baby boy is 8months. I have added an excess of weight since the meeting of my husband in 2003, 90lbs to be exact. Im severly depressed over it and it has caused me to lose focus on my life and my childrens. I have started this fatsecret website for encouragement. Without my wonderful Zumba and Spinning teachers i would not have even gotten on here. I like to eat all the wrong things bu i also love the good stuff. I have learned so much lately about porions and foods that i think all together this is going to be a great success. I have FAITH and the LORD on my side and with those ALL things are possible. I will continue thru this until my goal is reached. My goal which may be long term is to wear a size 8 gown at my ten year renewal of vows. This is five years away but pound by pounmd this will happen. My short term goals are not weight related but health related... i want to push my ids on the swing, go tothe park ihout fainting of heat, ride a bike longer then the end of the driveway, sit on the floor and play without falling over to lay down, these simple things became very difficult for me and it is time for a CHANGE. I praise the LORD for allowing me to see this for myself and getting up and doing something about it!!
