I am brand new to the site. I have let myself go and since moving Back to WI in Sept 2003 I have gained 40 lbs, I am currently hoping to get back to 120 where i was when i met my husband in 2002 but realistically I am hoping to drop from my starting weight of 165 to 130. Since I am 37 and have gotten myself used to being lazy and tired, It is a challenge. I do have a friend who is trining me, she is actually doing intense training with me and i have lost about 3lbs so far. although i need to throw my scale away because i weigh every day. so i see the fluctuation. Nice to meet you all

Good luck to you! Remember to celebrate the small victories, they are what will keep you motivated.

HI and welcome! I'm new here too but I am loving it. We have very similar weight goals and we are close to the same weight now. I weigh 163. I know exactly what you mean about weighing everyday. I do the same thing! Not good I know....It does help me though that I'm on this site all day long off and on and I can see my progress. Since it have the site up all the time I am challenged to NOT eat the entire box of girl scout cookies :happy: I only ate two out of the package! For me that was incredible self control and I finished the day with 269 unused calories so I got a treat and stayed within my calorie limits. The site also encourages me to do my workout daily because I see what my efforts and getting me even when the scale has another interpretation. Good luck with your goals.
