I'm a 32 year old wife and mother to Mark, 11 and Madelynn 4.  I work full time and also attend college full time.  I am 5'6 weighing in at 232 lbs.  I started at 250 lbs.  Before the holidays, I had lost 20 lbs but in a moment (or month) of weakness, I gained back 10 of them.  So in Feb. when I turned 32, I decided to get serious again.  I have since lost the 10 that I gained back over the holidays.

I try to eat between 1200 and 1500 calories daily.  I also work out at least 3 times a week.  The most I have ever weighed is 266 and the lowest of my adult life was 189.  My goal is 150.  Is it even reachable?  I hope so.
