Hey y'all. I'm Amanda, formerly 2littlefischers, and I'm back on the board! Did ya miss me? Anyone around who even knows who I am?? LOL!

For those of you who don't, here's a bit about me. I have been a lurker on this board for a long, long, long time. I've posted occasionally, but for the past several months I haven't been active on any boards. Kinda been in a funk I guess. I'm 27, live in southern California, and a SAHM to my 2 boys, Ethan (3.5 yrs) and Ryen (2.5 yrs).

(Oh, and if you're curious about what my new username means... Ilythia is the greek goddess of childbirth. Recently I've decided I'd really like to become a doula and plan on gradually working toward that goal in the next couple years until my kids are in school and I really have the time to devote to it.)

I haven't really been on plan for a while now, not drastically off, but enough to get some bad habits back. Somehow I've only gained back 5 lbs, but I just can't seem to get my head in the losing game again. That's why I decided it might help me to try and be a somewhat regular poster around here. I need some accountability, and probably a few big kicks in the behind!

Looking forward to getting to know you all better!

Thanks for the welcome Shawna :-) I actually did just move a week and a half ago, LOL, but it wasn't *to* CA. We've been here for 4 1/2 years, just needed a change so we're in a new apartment about 5 miles north of our old place.

I'll definitely be looking at those challenges, I've already been trying to drink more water this week. Not to my goal, but a heck of a lot more than what it had been the past few weeks anyway.

Welcome back, Amanda, and I love the new name (: We've got 7 weeks (well, 6 1/2 now hehe) of challenges going on - precisely for accountibility and kicks in the behind! Congrats on only gaining 5! I gained... a lot more than that during my off-plan days.


Looking forward to getting to know you.
