Hello, Newbie from TN here!

[collierville5]

Hello I am new here and really need support. I need to lose about 40 lbs. and would love to do it in a little less than 4 months for my 40th birthday. This may be a little unrealistic but a girl can have a goal right???!!!

I live in TN and have 3 children and a husband (none of whom are overweight at all). My kids are all in school and my job is flexible so I have no excuse for not exercising although I rarely do. I allow other things to take my day.

I am trying to eat really healthy with a lot of protein/fruits/veggies and only healthy carbs. I am also trying to get out and walk with my 13yr. old daughter in the evenings. We walked about 35 min. last night. She wanted to do an hour but my rt. foot was bothering me. Drinking water should be easier for me now that warmer weather is here.

Would love to hear from any of you about yourselves. Have a great day- the weather is clear here and supposed to be 87 today!

Welcome!! You will find all the support you need here!! The people are awesome!

I too have a short term goal, I would like to lose 25lbs by July :S...I'm just going to try and work my ass off to get there, lol. I too am at home a lot, as I am in university, and off for exams at the moment, I'm just trying to FORCE myself to exercise. I used to hate running! lol

I think your goal could be reasonable...about 2-3lbs a week will give you about 32-48lbs off in 4 months! Keep us updated
