    Today is my 4th day and first day saying hello to everyone. I feel pretty good. I am surprised. Yesterday was my withdraw day. Felt horrible, achey, etc. But I lived through it and today I feel much better.
    I am a very busy mother of 8. I have 5 birth children and have 3 newly aquired step children. Crazy life! I am the heaviest I have ever been and I am not happy about it. I am getting married this summer and I don't want to be a fat bride!!!!
    I am only 5'3" and I started out on Saturday the 13th at 187 pounds. I have lost some weight already. Today I weighed in at 183. I was shocked and very proud of myself. My goal weight is 130.

    Geesh and i am going crazy with my 3 kids. LOL I remember someone told me once, "How can it be hard for you to lose weight chaising those kids around all day?" HAHA If it were only that easy to lose weight. HAHA You have come to the right place for support and encouragement. If you need anything just ask? I am looking forward to watching your progress. Good Luck and God Bless!

            I have 5 birth children one step-daughter and my daughter's best friend that lives with me so I know how you feel! It will only get easier though! I have actually learned to cook for them and still make my dinner seperate. I make mine first and eat it while I am cooking theirs, helps me not cheat when I am making their dinner. Keep up the good work!

                  Weigh to go
                  Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
                  Take a look at the thread from the latest Veggie Challenge to see how others manage it!
