New Here...hope it's okay...

Hello, everyone. My name is Jenn, and I have about 70 pounds to lose. I know this group is for those that have 100+ to lose, so I hope it's okay that I'm here.

I'll tell you a little about myself. I am a happily married SAHM of 3 beautiful kids..a 10 year old boy, an 8 year old girl, and a 10 month old boy. My family is the light of my life.

At one point, I DID lose 70 pounds...I was 274...but I gained back 20 of that after 2 years (I had a baby...lol)
So now, I'm 223 and I want to get down to a healthy weight for the first time in my life. I'm excited, and scared, and a little overwhelmed. But I know I can do it. (Well, I THINK I can...lol)
Thanks for reading...and if it's not okay that I'm here, I understand.
Thanks again!

70 is close enough to 100. The name of the board should be "Substantial Weight Loss" or something like that... 50lbs+, because anything more than 20lbs or so is such a struggle. If you're looking for support, you're in luck. These ladies are some of the neatest and most nurturing people you could find to help you acheive your goal.
Congratulations on your decision to become healthy, and good luck!

Why are you overwhelmed? You already lost 70lbs before, so you know you can do it again. And you've got us to help you along the way.


Wishing you as much success this time around as last time
