Let's Do This!

Hi all! My name is Jen and I am one of the new contributors to Dear Flabby. I thought I would just jump right in and tell you a little about myself. I am a stay at home mom to a five year old girl and a two year old boy. I'm married to a great guy, he has to be to put up with me..lol! We've been together since we were teenagers and have become late night eating buddies. Which is not good at all. The proof is in the pants size. We have both gained a lot of weight in the last 10 years, but that is going to change starting right now.

With everyday life being a chaotic and stressful I've packed on the pounds. Between late night eating, overeating, making poor food choices, and lack of exercise I am the biggest I have ever been. I would love to weigh 150lbs again. I think I looked pretty good at that weight and it's a healthy weight for me. I joined Dear Flabby in hopes that a little challenge between friends would make a huge difference in my life, because every pound lost is important. I'm hoping to lose at least 25lbs by our May 15th deadline. I think I can do it. Scratch that. I know I can do it!

I hope all our Dear Flabby readers will join us, and challenge themselves to see how much weight they can lose by May. I think it will be fun, and interesting to see the results. So all that I have left to say is....Let's Do This!!!!!

Starting weight 222lbs(Yikes!)
