I'm from the deep south where home cooking is smothered, slathered, and mostly deep fried in fat. Growing up my parents never really instilled the importance of nutrition. We had dessert every day.. sometimes twice a day! I've always been a little overweight and even more since hitting my 20's.
Now, I am a wife and mother of 2 and it's even harder to find the time and will-power to commit to losing and keeping it off.
Recently, I have found the determination after hitting an all time high on the scales after giving birth last September.
I am now ready to take an extra step in order to shed the pounds as fast as safely possible. Hopefully this website will give some tools and encouragement to do so!

**Update 4/30/08:
So the little one is nearly 9 months old now and I'm nearly 25 lbs lighter. It feels pretty great, but I'm still working hard and hopefully I lose another 25.. I'm looking for some buddies to share some motivation and encouragement! Best of luck to all of you!
