I am 29. I have 5 children so far, 4 girls and a boy. I am an adoptive mom and a special needs mom. Nov 1st 2008 I started losing weight by July 2009 I had lost 95lbs. Then I got lazy. My husband lost his job and we were adopting. I gained about 40-45lbs back. The adoption is over now, my husband is back to work and I am done making excuses as to why I can eat 10 mini candy bars in a single setting. I adopted the philosophy "you only live once" but that was killing me. Now its back to the hard work to get this weight off once again and maybe this time learn my lesson.

I dont want to be thin, I want to be fit and healthy.
