Hey everyone! I have struggled with my body since high school (maybe before then) but I've never really known what to do to lose weight. I joined the Air Force at 17 and left home shortly after graduating high school. I GAINED weight in basic training... spent 4 yrs in the Air Force & another 3 supporting the military/government.

I have two children, during both pregnancies I gained very little weight. (4 lbs with my first, 0 lbs with my last.) But after both, while breastfeeding, I would sit and eat all day long. So I gained again while most women lose. Right now I am a stay at home mom and focused more on cooking and setting a good example for my kids.

My heaviest weight was 203lbs. I look back at Christmas pictures from that year and hate the way I look. My lowest weight ever was 135. I want to be back there. Right after having my daughter I weighed 147. I would be so happy at that weight, and this time I KNOW I can stick with this life change.

I am counting calories, just got a gym membership, and I'm working out with some Jillian Michaels DVD's. I am also reading Jillian Michaels books and have gained a positive self image from them.
