Hi there.....I've been lurking around here the past few days and decided that it's time to join up. You all seem so supportive of one another and it seems like that is just what I really need.....I am pretty much alone in this weight struggle. My friends and family are healthy weights and happy....I am neither.
I'm 29....5'4 and 200lbs. My goal weight is around 130lbs. I don't have a target date set in stone, but I would really like to look and more importantly feel a lot better about myself by my 30th birthday....which is August 2. Not saying I need to lose the whole 70lbs by then, but to be getting close to that by then would be a pretty sweet 30th b-day present!!!
Anyway, it's pretty late, so I think it's about bedtime for me!! I hope to chat soon!!!!!!! :D
 
Me too!

I'm nearly 5'4" myself and weighed in 2 days ago at a stable 200 lbs. Not an ounce either way. Ha ha! I'm also new to this particular journey and ready for the wild ride. I'm up to a challenge any day. I have to be, I'm an Army wife! I'll be glad to communicate with you through this maze of self-discovery. I mean, the way I see it (and I do not force opinions), I am in here under all this chub. I literally feel dragged down by my weight. I have to think in terms of "Can I sit here?" and fuss at myself for drinking a Coke when I should have had diet, or, better yet, water. I feel so glad to just talk and write to people in the same position. I have friends who don't want to do anything about their weight other than complain about it. It hurts me. I am so glad to talk to willing people.

I wish you the best of luck in this! ;)

Hi! Welcome! I have been here a month. I am hoping to be 200 lb in a week or so! This forum has helped me a lot. I hope it works for you. :) :)
