New here - my name is Jenny, I'm 29 years old, and from Chicago, IL (the burbs)

I'm looking for a support group to help me lose weight.

I'm currently 213 lbs, my heaviest I was 224. I quit smoking 3 months ago, and after using that for an excuse for months (even before I quit - lol) I've decided I'd best get moving on the weight loss!!

So - back from vacation I was 219, and have lost 6 lbs since 7/10.

I am currently losely using the point system, but will be joining WW officially for the first time tomorrow.

I'm very excited to get started, I've put some portions of my life on hold for right now, and decided to really start concentrating on me.

Can wait to meet some new "buddies"

Hello and welcome to the site!

We are starting a new group challange in the club section of the forums. You're welcome to join up. Sign ups for the challange are until 6 tonight.
 
Hello & welcome!!! I am 29 also! We are really close in our current weights. What is your height and goal weight?
 
Welcome to the site Jenny! There is a lot of support here so you definately came to the right place. All you have to do is ask! :) Good job on the 6 pound weight loss. What is your goal weight?
 
Hey Jenny from chicago - oooh i'll probably be hitting you up for chicago info - i'm moving there in the next few months :)

Welcome welcome....

Well done for you on quitting smoking - if you can do that - losing weight will be a cake -- ermmm fruit walk :)

Feel free to start up a diary to keep track of your victories and your challenges.. and it gives us the opportunity to get to know you better... :)
 
Thanks for the welcomes!! I'm 5'9" - my new signature includes my start, current, and goal weight.

I couldn't get a ticker working here??? I'll play later, I'm sure I'll figure it out.

I"m very excited to lose this extra weight!
 
Welcome, Jenny. I recently quit smoking too! The Monday before Memorial Day...whenever that was. I think it gave me the fortitude to lose weight. I figured if I could do that, I could do anything....let me tell you....I love to smoke, but probably not as much as I love to eat! This is a great place to get support, recipes and general information. Good Luck with your goal.
 
Welcome aboard Jenny---The fact you have a White Sox shirt on instead of one from the other team puts you in good shape with me. I've been a Southsider all my life :)
 
Hey Jenny! Just wanted to say hi to my new teammate! You should start a thread on the diary page so it's easier to keep up with you! Good luck with Weight Watchers today! :)
