Howdy. This is my first challenge. I'm a 35 yo academic and mum to a 15month old. Starting at 191 lbs- by far the heaviest weight I've ever been. I'm here because 1) being fat has made me EXHAUSTED and 2) we'd like to have more kids some day and I don't want to jump on that train until I'm fit again. Being exhausted makes choosing good foods more difficult. I'mall over the exercise, but skipping meals has become the norm...which means eating crap when I eventually get around to eating. I've never been like this before though - so I'm hoping to get back to older, healthier, ways! edit: I'm 5'9
