Hi my name is Gina and I am 34 5'2" and 200lbs. I have been heavy my whole life and I want to get my life back. I love to garden and this year I realized just how difficult my weight was getting in the way of my pass time. I feel like this is the time when I am gonna change my life style and not just diet.

I am looking forward to sharing my sruggles and achievements with people who undeerstand. My three sisters have never been over weight and my younger brother is very skinny and eats like a horse.
 
Welcome to the site! It must be very frustrating to see your brother eat anything and everything he wants and still be a skinny minny!! But no worries right---before you know it, you'll be a super skinny minny too!

We are almost the same age. We are the same height. And two months ago I weighed what you weigh now! You can do this!
 
You'll find lots of support here, especially from those of us who have family members with annoyingly high metabolisms (my step sister is still able to eat whatever she wants after having children - she makes me want to stick a fork in her hand when she reaches across the table).

Best of luck and welcome to the site!
 
Thanks for all the encouraging words. My older sister is actually great because she wants to help me reach my goals. She just lives in Texas so she can give advice and moral support, b ut it is nice to have a workout buddy!
