Some of you may know, and some of you may not - but several years ago - having spent a life of being overweight in my teens, to morbid obese in my adult life - that I decided to make a huge change!!!
One Day while playing with my daughter who was then just 3, I sat on a park bench like a lump while she called to me "come play with me" but sadly - I just didnt have the enegry
I made it my goal to loose weight so that I could enjoy her life and participate in life rather than sit by and be over weight - so I started my weight loss journey!! I made small changes day to day and within a year, I had lost 200 pounds!!!!
I took the healthy road and now I help my friends and family, as well as complete strangers meet their goals - that is why I started a facebook page called "Taking it off together"
I thought this was a good time to start the page since I just had the baby and also have some extra weight to shed. I will be posting updates, tips and healthy recipes to help motivate myself and others. If you have a few extra pounds to loose feel free to join. It is a place where you can share your good days and bad days among others who are going through the same thing.
I have also included a before and after picture of myself below - if I can do it, anyone can!!!
I'd love to share and continue my journey with anyone who would like to join!!! Follow the link in my signature to join!This thread is currently associated with: N/ALast edited by JennyFromTheRock; Sat, Nov 19th, 2011 at 07:15 PM.

Awesome! I need to get myself back in order. I was over 200lbs about seven years ago and I had a similar moment with my own children. I wanted to be involved in their lives and not just be an onlooker. So I started working out and changing my habits and after about a year I had gone from 1x/2x to a size 6 and about 126lbs. Unfortunatley the last few years I've been sitting in a class room and it's been a year and a half of no work after graduation, that equals lots of sedentary activities and over eating. I've now gained back about 60lbs and I just cant get my act together! So I can use all the motivation I can get!
