The Mom Club

I’ve been dreading writing about this topic because once its out in the open I will no longer be able to hideout in denial!  Here I go: “Hi, my name is Lanie and I have gained 10 lbs in the last 4 months!”  I’m not quite sure how it happened, I have been going to the gym and eating pretty good, but I have a sneaking suspicion that genetics is no longer being kind to me.  After many discussions with close friends I have learned that turning the dreaded 30 does more than just put you in the prehistoric age, it also screws up your metabolism.

It seems as though I am faced with a decision, do I give up treats and look good or give up looking good and eat treats?  I guess the decision isn’t really very hard, I know all too well what being unhappy with myself does to my self esteem and happiness and I owe it to myself and also to my family (because everyone knows that when Mom isnt happy no one is happy!) to take care of myself.

Lucky for me my brother inlaw is manager of a small supplement and nutrition store (kind of like a GNC) and he gets samples and trial bottles of all sorts of products.  He said I can take my pick of whatever I want!

In order to hold myself accountable for my weightloss progress I am going to post my results and reviews on each of the products I try so those of you also looking to lose weight wont waste money on the products that turn out to be duds!

Wish me luck!

PS Any requests for products you want me to try and review?  I honestly have no idea where to start!
