Hello everyone!  I joined the forum last night and have looked around some but look forward to getting more in depth with all of the information provided here.

My name is Jessie (or Jessica, whichever).  I'm 25 & have been married for 2 yrs.  My husband & I have been together almost a total of 10 yrs though this October.  No kids yet but maybe in a couple of years.  We do have 6 babies though :): Pepper - Chocolate Lab, Lexi - Terrier mix, Chloe - foster cat, Oscar & Ellie - Quaker Parrots, & Homie - Pot Bellied Pig.  We live in East Texas on 8 acres and love being in the country.  I commute about an hour to work each day so I need some help with preplanning my meals & using my time to the maximum.    I have worked for an insurance company for 7 years and I'm currently the Office Manager/Life Sales Agent.  I also make extra money as a Mary Kay Beauty Consultant. 

I think there is something about the month of July that motivates me.  Last July I joined the biggestloserclub.com and successfully lost 26lbs.  I stopped dieting in December because we moved out of my in-laws house and got our first "real" home on our own and just never got motivation to start it back.  I have gained back 5 lbs over the past 6 months, which to me is not bad but I'm going the wrong direction.  I'm currently at 202 and would like to be at 150 or less.  I can't tell you how awesome it felt to be below 200lbs.  I can't remember being below that in my adult life!!! I want it back and then some.

I'm hoping to find motivation here & people to keep me accountable.  Also I would love to help anybody else out that needs it! 

Well I've rambled on & on!!!  I look forward to getting to know everyone soon!!!

Jessie
