Hello all!
My name is Lisa, and I am ready to change my life and loose this weight
I'm 29 years old and I have been overweight for the past 8 years. I've tried just about every diet out there but have never lost more then 10-15 lbs because I always gave up. I know some may be thinking what’s changed since then...what makes you think this time will be any different? Well here is my story ....
In January my husband of 10 years left me while I was 6 months pregnant with our fourth child. It was the hardest thing I have ever had to deal with. However, on the flip side it has also been one of the best things to ever happen to me! I've learned in the past 4 months more about myself then I had in the past few years. Like most other wife’s and moms out there, I had put myself on the back burner. I let my needs, desires, and wants go in an effort to be everything to everyone else. Plain and simple,I had lost ME!! As I begin to pick up the pieces and start over I've come to realize that part of this rebuilding process needs to include me loosing weight and getting healthy. After all I am now a single mom and my kiddos need there momma. I'll admit there is also a small part of me that wants to loose weight so that when and if I ever decide to date again I will feel good about myself. I don’t see this happening anytime soon though as I am only focused on finding me again, loosing weight and getting healthy right now
This site and the people on here have been so inspiring to me! Everyone is so encouraging and helpful to others. I look forward to talking with people, sharing ups and downs but also hope that I someday can inspire someone else to change their life, the way so many of you have inspired me!!
