my story so far (210-144 with pics)

[clarecbear82]

Hi I'm new here so thought I would just tell my story so far!

I have been overweight my whole life and after having my third child in september 10 I was the heaviest I've ever been weighing 210lb. I was never really bothered about my weight until then and the main thing that got me started on this journey was that I has gestational diabeties and they told me my risk of getting type 2 was higher due to this.

So in February 11 I found mfp and started calorie counting. Ive found it quite easy up until now to lose the weight obviously the mental side of why I eat has been harder to deal with.

Sorry this isn't the most interesting if stories but here are my progress pics so far
210-
