I'm new here

Options
I'm new here and just wanted to share a little about myself. A year ago I took a secretary job where I work. Since then I put on about 40 pounds. I was overweight before that so now I really need to lose weight. I'm currently 25 years old and 304 pounds. My goal is to be back to where I was my senior year of high school, 215 pounds, which is still a little overweight for my height but a lot better than 304.

    That is an excellent starting goal I think. I hope you find this site and the people as helpful as I have. I have been here since Aug and have started to see some nice progress.

    Best of luck.

    Just joined tonight. I was just looking at pictures of myself a year ago at a friend's wedding and was surprised to see how overweight I was. Since then, I've lost over 50 pounds, but I've been stuck lately and am hoping that this site will help.

    Hey bowl_king

    Thanks for sharing I never get tired of reading other peoples new start. I also started at 305 I'm down to 278. My goal is 225. I to ride a desk most of the day. I try to walk as much as I can. It's not easy but I manage at least a mile a day. Good luck

    Welcome! You're in the right place! Now that I have a desk job, my "tuffett" has gotten a lot larger than I would like it! Keep up the good work!
