Hi! So, I'm Emily, I'm 24 years old, married and have one dog is my baby! I am a nurse and have one full time job and one part time job. I am currently an LPN and going back to school this fall and then starting the RN program in May. I have lots of motivation to lose weight! My husband is around 160-170 lbs having lost down from above 200. So, it's really not good for my self esteem to be so much heavier than him. I have a concert to see my two favorite bands in September, and would like to lose some weight before I go! And most of all, I want to be slimmed down by the time I start the RN program! People can be very judgmental, especially when it comes to your weight in the medical field...let's just leave it at that. I am starting my diet today and hope to keep track with myfitnesspal and get some encouragement and motivation from this forum! Good luck to everyone out there battling with this also! I look forward to getting to know some of you!

~Emily.
 
Welcome to the forum.

I know that we have chatted a little elsewhere - but I am trying to catch up over in this section and learn a little more about you.

It is great that your husband has lost some weight and it will be brilliant for you to lose some too... The great thing is that your husband knows how hard people need to work to lose weight and will be able to support you in this.

If you keep on working hard the way that you have started - you will see some brilliant results by the time your new course starts. Good luck for feeling and looking good for the concert too.

I suggest that you read the following thread - it may help you settle in and make friends here

Good luck with your project.
