A bit about me
Hi, I'm Laura 
I'm 26 years old and live in Ontario, Canada. I gained about 50lbs in 3 months almost ten years ago when I moved in with my husband, although he was my boyfriend at the time. It was caused by constant junk food, it was cheaper for us to go pick up a couple of burgers then to go to the grocery store. Over the next couple of years I gained another 45lbs and hit my heaviest weight at 225. I decided to join a supplement weight loss company and managed to lose about 50lbs. I stopped because I was pregnant with my first baby, the company gave me a hard time and wouldn't hold my account status so I quit, er well I guess they fired me
Since then I have been up and down, had another baby, was pregnant again, but lost the baby at three months so I went through some emotional eating. I'm starting to feel better. I have two beautiful kids who are 2 and 4. We are starting to build our fourth home in April and I would love to be able to help out a lot. I have a goal weight in mind, and that is 130lb although I cannot imagine myself being that thin, I did read that we are suppose to push our goals a bit. I figure I would be happy at 140 so if I do the last phase and lose another ten pounds well that would be awesome
I am excited that I have started this program I feel like it's something I can do and that will work for me. I've had a hard time dealing with the no potato chips but I figure at some point I'm allowed butter-salt air popped popcorn which is the next best thing!!!
I was/am a coffee, sugar, carb, junk, alchohol, smoking addict. Whew that's a lot!! I am trying to tackle a couple at a time so I don't fail. I'm having problems cutting the sugar out of my coffee but I've had some good suggestions here that I am going to try. I think they are all equally hard to quit but I am giving my best effort and if I can slowly get rid of these things in my life I think I will be happier
I am glad that I have found this support group I think it will be so helpful, and hopefully not that addictive. Although support is never a bad thing to be addicted to
