I'm married with 3 older children (24,19&16) and 2 small children (4&3). My husband and I adopted our two youngest from China after we married in 2002. During the very stressful adoption process and wait, my weight started climbing. I was almost up to 40lbs. over my normal weight when I started to really get serious about dieting about 1 1/2 months ago. The first few pounds came off easy but now I keep hitting walls. I know I should exercise more. I'm pretty active (for a mid 40's girl) with 2 little ones again. I think support...like these groups are so helpful. When we were adopting I belonged to adoption groups on the internet and we all helped each other out a great deal.
