Hi there!
I am Jacque, a 30 yr old mother and wife - the 2 hardest but BEST jobs in the world! I also have my own home childcare so that keeps me busy as well. I have 3 boys ages 11 1/2, 2 1/2, and 1. I was doing well at keeping myself around my ideal weight of 130-140 before I had my 2 year old. Although I think its the combination of getting married and then having 2 children so close together that has pushed me to my largest size ever - 215 lbs - and I'm only 5'1. I have come to the point where I feel like my weight is starting to affect my health. My blood pressure has gone up to the point where the dr is ready to put me on meds and the other thing is that my husband and I have been ttc for a year now and nothing yet. I also believe that this weight gain has exacerbated my depression. So I am hoping that even the slightest weight loss will begin to make me feel better and ultimately give better results the next time I see my dr.
I am pretty determined to get to my goal weight of 140 so I am looking for all the support I can get! I would love to share this journey with some ladies that are kind of in the same spot.
