My name is Stephen.

My name is Stephen, one of your new members here. I am motivated again to lose wieght, it is something that has dominated my thoughts since I was 12; Now 22 years of age I am at my heaviest 120, every time i go to lose weight I am successful.

Somewhere along the way I have lost the thought that this is meant to be a permanent lifestyle change, where do we fail. Anyhow, my motivation came from a relative who has recently died mostly because she is overwieght.

I will be damned if I let myself continue the way my life has proceeded in the past, I will walk this path as part of a group this time.

Let's win the battle together.

Hi Stephen,
Welcome to the WLF.

Just curious, how tall are you, and how much do you want to lose?

Hi Stephen,
Welcome to the WLF.

Just curious, how tall are you, and how much do you want to lose?

Thankyou, I am 173 cms tall and wish to lose 45 kilos(99 lbs).

Dariqueen, I am not very motivated it is just something I have too do. I believe it is the right thing too do, that will hold true whether I am motivated or not; I just have to remind myself everyday that it is a permanent change to lifestyle not about weight loss. ^.^

Getting down to my goal weight is not so important for me; I plan on going to the gym and taking up some sports/activitys that will help me lose weight and that I will enjoy well past this stage in my life.

Oh ok, your weight is in kilos. I thought you were 120 pounds and wanted to lose weight. Anyway, congrats on making the decision and realize that it is a lifestyle change and best of luck to you.
