Hi, all!

I'm a middle aged mom of 2 (both grown) striving to regain something resembling a waistline and bum. I live with my manfriend, a very talented and successful artist as well as an exceptional cook.

Looking forward to reading what's working (and not working) for others, getting tips and inspiration, and sharing my success (I'm an optimist).

Welcome AutumnBorn! you can certainly achieve that slim waistline and bum and look forward to the time you have accomplished it. It too, would be very nice if your manfriend understood your fatloss struggle and fully supports and helps you, does he?

My downfall in attempts to lose fat in the past was people around me, it was hard enough trying to lose fat without people telling me "aw c'mon, let go eat out" or, "I have a free guest coupon at the hamburger joint"

I've since learned to say a adamant NO!! you go, NOT me. I know that's easier said than done though. haha!
 
Welcome, I am new today as well and I see you are from Seattle, I am in Burlington. I just stumbled upon this site and thought it would be very refreshing to meet and see people trying to achieve the same goals as myself. That would be as you said finding my waist again. It finally is emerging, and very exciting to see.
 
Hi Autumborn and Knotty, I am new today as well and very excited that I stumbled onto this site, I too am excited about finding my waist line again. So far my journey is going well, I have lost 32 pounds in 58 days and I feel great. It is always nice to have a large support system. I hate that urge to cheat and so it is nice to share with others that have the same goals as well as struggles. So here is to our emerging waists. Nice to meet you. Autumborn I see you are from Seattle, I am in the Burlington area up north.
 
Welcome to the forum.

It is fortunate that your partner is an exceptionally good cook. He should be able to easily master some slimming meals to help you with your project. I am sure that he will appreciate your revealed bum and waistline so he can help you work towards it... :)

The whole forum will enjoy learning of your success.

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

Good luck with your project.
 
I wish my husband could/would cook healthy, tasty meals for me. Whenever I leave him in charge of dinner a single serving takes up half of my daily calories (if not more!). Is your man friend working on a weight loss goal as well?
