Mama 2many traineo Newbie Posts: 2 Mama 2many This member has no personal statement yet!	# Posted: 23 Jun 2008 21:09 I am a mama2many. I have 6 kids and having multiple pregnancies and sitting on the couch taking care of my beloved babies has made me fat. (Plus, I have a major sweet tooth.) But I'm determined to look good again. In my youth and after the first 2 kids, I looked excellent. I was actually a size 4. Slowly, but surely though, I gained a lot of weight and now I'm a size 16Plus. I'm real tired of being a fat lady. I wanna look and feel good again. I want to live an axctive lifestyle. S, 3 weeks ago I joined a YMCA and I've been working out. Today, I began my strength training program. My ultimate goals are to lose many many inches, be a size 8, and a total of 69lbs in one year. I'm here to log my results and look for and offer support to others.
Tammie J traineo Fanatic Posts: 102 Tammie J Success is the good fortune that comes from aspiration, desperation, perspiration, dedication, and inspiration! Workin on Being healthy and eating better. Since my junior year of high school, I packed on probably 85 lbs. My goal is to lose that 85 lbs and then some. I'm striving for 145-155 lbs. I think that with my height etc...that'd be a good weight for me. I'm working on getting there and I've never felt more motivated. I have friends and family helping me along the way as well as co-workers and now TRAINEO. This is the first time in my life that I've actually been EXCITED about getting up, getting moving and Leaving this fat butt behind. I've set myself smaller goals along the way and I'm trying my hardest to reach them. But if I fall a step behind... I WON'T give up!!! NOT THIS TIME...	# Posted: 23 Jun 2008 21:16 Welcome....Much luck to you in your weight loss journey. We're all here for support and motivation so get involved and lets get healthy!!!

Debbie Meier traineo Regular Posts: 43 Debbie Meier I am a 51 year old wife, mother and grandmother who is in need of help in this weight loss battle. Behind this smile, is a sadness that comes from being overweight and inside hating myself. I am tired of pretending that it doesn't matter, because it does. I hate looking in the mirror, trying on clothes, and not knowing if I will live long enough to see my kids and grandkids grow old. Out of all the things I can do, and work so hard to do. This is the one thing, I fail at, day in and day out. Maybe through some daily or weekly motivators , I can achieve this dream of mine to lose the weight, and not feel so alone.	# Posted: 23 Jun 2008 21:31 Hi, You have come to the right place. Lots of threads and groups and motivation. Congratulations on joining the YMCA, and for working out. That is the first of many steps you will take on this journey. Lots of kids, lots of ways to workout, get the kids involved, they will learn healthy habits, and exercise, (even just walking )and not become part of the overweight kids population that is spreading all over the place. Good luck on your journey, One day at a time, one meal at a time, and just remember to keep loving yourself. Blessings, Debbie

I'm new too, and also a mother of 6 children. I was able to lose all the baby weight after my second child, but difficult pregnancies #3, #4, and #5 (twins), had me gaining weight like crazy. I've lost and gained again over the past 2 years and want to get it off for good. Good luck to you!
