I am new to this forum , in fact I found it about 10 minutes ago , lol . I got from 291 lbs to 169 lbs two years or so ago (Weightwatchers) it as Awesome ! I had never lost so much weight before , and I was fitting into clothing in sizes which were ...unimagineable , like medium tops , and size 12 pants/skirts ::sigh:: (LOL)
Alas, due to my various woes *cough*emotional/stress/boredom eating*cough* I have gained some of it back
you would really think that with having never been thin would deter me because of course, I felt Sooo much better about myself .. but noooooo , lol .
Anyhow though , I have gotten there before and I will do it again , and its forums like this one and people like you all who have kept me motivated so far .
Its hard to find someone to relate to when one feels like they are simply 'the fat one' amongst family and friends , its very hard because its always there , the idea that people look at you much differently when it comes to 'fat' vs 'thin' .. Ok, enough ranting from me
