Hi there,

I am 35 yrs old and am looking for friends. I joined this site for support, to chat and share ideas and stories. I have been married for 11 yrs and have a dog. I have always been a big girl and I decided it is my time to get healthy and look/ feel good. I have lost 26 lbs since July 4th, 2010 and feel great but, I know I have a long way to go as I want to lose 120 lbs more.
If you are interested in sharing stories, ideas and getting/ offering advise please, email me and put me down as a friend!

    welcome
    you are doing great, just keep doing what you are doing. I have found that breaking it down into smaller goals is easier, looking at the big picture can be overwhelming. You can do it

    I agree with [themommie] about the small goals! I know I can lose thirty pounds, but thinking about losing one-hundred+?
    It's definitely overwhelming!!

    I sent you a friend request! I started using this site just a few weeks ago, and LOVE it. I, too, have a lot of weight to lose. I've always been overweight, but somehow found myself weighing 380 pounds. I recently turned 27, and I don't want to have to worry about my health all my life!

    We can do this!!
