Not sure how I feel about this? Like weight loss or trying to get started perhaps being accountable will help. 41 and 50lbs over weight. Can't blame it on my kids anymore they're all grown! :waving:
 
Hi there Loretta! I know that the idea of joining a forum and discussing my weight and being accountable was a little bit intimidating for me, but I have found it helpful. I think it helps make the process more a part of our lives, as opposed to something that we can put off. Don't know if I'm explaining that well.

I hope that you find it helpful as well. :)
 
I have tried to lose weight many times over many years. At one point even joined a gym (which I HATE) and had a Personal Trainer (which was good, but expensive). I did lose some weight, but I hate gyms and really only went on the bike unless I was with her, and it just wasn't worth it to me.

I always quit when I tried in the past, even with the gym membership. However, being on here, while I have not made as much progress as I wanted to, I have not quit and do not plan to. Partly I think it is due to this forum and the great people and keeping me accountable, but also probably due to the fact we are finally planning our wedding for June 2014 and I want to look amazing (we have been engaged over 4.5 years). But honestly I think without this forum I probably would still have given up and would not be as determined to keep it going.
