Hello,
Just joined yesterday. Here's the deal. Was heavy all my life, went on slimfast my senior year of high school and lost over 60 lbs. Got married the next year and had baby number one, four years later (April of '10) after baby number two I have gained back 70lbs. I'm horrified. I am struggleing to fit a size 26. I'm not even 26 - shouldnt your pants size be smaller then your age at this point??!! Haha!
JUST got back from a 35 minute "brisk" walk and I'm feeling pretty good. I know i can do this because I have done it before. Anyone willing to buddy up with me, i would love it! I haven't lost with anyone before and I think it would give me the will power to stick with it.
Wish me luck
Caroline

Hey Caroline and welcome to MFP! You're right, if you did it once, you can definately do it again! Just break your goals into mini goals of about 10-15 pounds to lose at a time and it won't seem too overwhelming.
This site has so many great people who offer help and support. Stick with it and you'll reach your goals!
Good luck!!0 -
