Hello Everyone, I hope your day is well.

Hello Everyone, I hope your day is going well. My name is space_cadet I live in the Houston, Texas area, and I am here because I would like some pals on the way to my weight loss goal. I am a 23 year old married woman. I weigh approximately 260 lbs. and am about 5'6 tall.

I've been looking around the forum and am going to start a diary as I have seen others have done, and I think that might help me.

My goal is simple: loose 2lbs a week for one year to reach a total weight loss goal of 96 lbs. That will bring my weight to 164 lbs! Oh my, I couldn't imagine weighing that much!

So, I hope to see you all around the board. Have a great day.

Hi Space Cadet, cute avatar!
I'm glad you're already deciding to start a diary and you have a very good goal of 2lbs a week. Very realisitic. Good luck and I'll see you around.

Hi there!

Hi Space Cadet! My goal is also to lose two pounds per week! My starting weight was 160 and my goal weight is any where between 125 and 130. I can't wait to get there! I know we can both do it! How do you plan to lose the weight? Good luck!

Hi Space cadet, I am in Brisbane Australia, long ways from you ,my daughter is 23 yrs old so I'm old enough to be your mum ha ha. what plans have you made to reach your weight loss goals. My daughter and I are wanting to lose weight. She is about to have a baby and I need to lose about 10 - 12 kgs. She will start when she has bubs after a few weeks but I am wanting to lose now , especially with christmas here, each year I go into the new year wanting to lose weight and by the following year I'm 2 or so kgs heavier [eveery year] ugh! It doesn't help that my kids are grown up now and I don't have to run around anymore.Anyway all the best for your venture!!!!
