Hi everyone! My name is Jen and I just turned 29. I have been over weight since I was atleast 14. I have tried all sorts of diets and yea I have lost weight but didn't stick with them to long and just gained the weight back. So now heres the plan. . .I would like to lose atleast 60 pounds before my 30th birthday. I don't think that is such a hard goal, just need to motivation to stick with it. Well, here we go . . .

    Welcome and best of luck. You will find great tips on the message boards. For me, this is a lifestyle change - not a diet. I know that I have to do this forever. Calories in (eat) - calories out (exercise). Of course the amount of each of those will change when I get to my goal - but it is still forever! Take care to lose 2-3 lbs a week max so you keep it off! I, like you, have tried every diet in the book and put it all back on and more.

    You can totally do that. I've lost 56.2lbs so far and it's taken me 7 months, but I have had the odd planned day (or week) off here and there.

    Good luck xox
