Brand new here!! I’ve been fairly comfortable being overweight, but I recently gained ten pounds and I’m feeling it. I’d like to lose about 20 pounds, 30 at most. Not looking to be thin, as I find it too hard to maintain. It’s been a long time since I purposefully lost weight so I’m quite worried that it will be challenging. I have a full time job, a meat and potatoes husband and two young teens, one of which is super picky. But I’m giving it a try!! I’d like to do a short term start goal of ten pounds in 3 weeks. This may be too ambitious, but I have 2 weeks off work so I thought I’d give “Er. I’d appreciate any tips, support, etc !!!

Welcome to the community!

If you haven't already, read the stickies at the top of the getting started forum. Very informative and helpful.

When you don't have a lot to lose, it typically takes longer to lose safely.
