msampred's Journal, 10 February 2008

I ran across this website today and decided to register. I read through a couple of entries and am feeling really moved by everyone's honesty. I turned 30 in October and I am a single mom with a 3 1/2 yr old son and I have yet to lose all of the weight that I gained when I was pregnant with him...actually, I have hardly lost any of the weight that I gained when I was pregnant with him and let me tell you...I have been heavy my entire life, but I went from a size 12 to a size 22! It's a big difference and most of the time it's just makes me cry when I look at pictures of what I used to look like (and I thought I was fat then!) to what i look like now...But I am at the point in my life where I need to make a change and I need to do it fast. My dad is very overweight and has type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, back problems...ect...I'm not there yet, but I'm well on my way! I also want to set a healthier example for my son so he never has to go through what I have had to go through with my weight!

Welcome! I think you will find this site very helpful. Great tips and wonderful support. Helps you to realize that you aren't alone in your battle. Remember....it's not a diet but a life style change. You will feel so much better about yourself and be healthier for you and your son. Again, WELCOME!
