    Hi, Brittany. I'm in the same boat as you. I, too, have been a "big girl" all my life. This past September, I made the decision to have Lap-Band surgery, & had my procedure in November.

    Congrats on the progress that you've already made!! Already added you.

    I'm also 5'2. My goal is 70ish pounds to lose? Somewhere in there :P I've been at this for 60+ days and know I have a long road ahead of me, but so far so good. I've had my "weight loss epiphany" and whatnot, so I'm in a great place mentally... just working on physical part ;)

    Anyone can feel free to add me.

    Hi there!
    Well 1st off welcome! You've taken an important 1st step and sounds like are off to a good start!
    I've been on MFP for a year now.
    It's an awesome site that really helped with my goals!
    I'm 3/4 of the way to my ultimate goal and working on carrying myself through to the end right now.
    I'm 35, an artist, nurse and married mother of one teen and one toddler... I have my hands full with a rambunctious house of boys. I have a back injury so I have been working on PT for over a year. I'm living proof one day at a time with changes in your diet and some simple movement and motivation you can loose that weight. I've had luck changing my blood pressure, my thyroid, my pain levels, and my weight guidelines all for the better with yoga, PT and diet changes. (going from morbidly obese to barley overweight)
    I'm on all the time and am always up for a new friend! Please feel free to friend me! :flowerforyou: And good luck on the site!
    PS anyone else can add me too if they want

    Hi, I'm glad u decided to loose the weight. My high weight was around 250 and I'm down in the low 140's. You can do this. Educate yourself on food....it is so easy to make a mistake. Food is tricky. Do NOT eat out...people may disagree but you can eat 2000 calories easy..Subway is okay because you can control what you eat. My goals were usually decade goals..out of 180s, 160, etc etc. You can do this!
