Hi and welcome to the forum!

There's alot of us struggling with a slow scale. It's OK in the long run, since we really need to learn a way of eating for life, not just a quick loss (this is NEVER the case with me!). If you don't have the DANDR book, you should pick up a copy because it really gives all the reasons and details that you might need to refer to as you go along.

There are lots of good threads and groups here - I'm sure you'll find some that fit you if you look around. Also, if you start a journal, you can keep track of your food and progress, and people get to "talk" to you.

I'm also a sahm with 2 boys - middle school and grade school. Wouldn't trade it for the world!

Good luck and keep trying!
