Hi Cynthia, saw your post and wanted to respond. no one likes to diet and exercise...it's too much work. people get discouraged when they feel they're not losing weight or don't see it but it's not going to happen overnight...it's a long, drawn out process. you have to be patient but you also have to be diligent...do your exercise even if you don't feel like it...go for the healthier food choices instead of something you KNOW is bad for you, dietwise.
I'm glad you have a goal of wanting to swim and wanting to "finally feel beautiful=): That really touched me. Don't ever let anyone tell you that you're not. stay on track...don't give up...you can do this.

Will send a friend request Cynthia, well done for deciding what you want to do and going out to get it - you'll get loads of support here, everyone is lovely - and it's all about perception - if you don't feel beautiful then you won't believe it, so good for you for doing what you need to do to feel great, you should be proud x

Have sent a friend request. I know how you feel - I was (and to some extent still am) in the same boat as you.

The people on here are fab and everyone's success is motivation to keep you going

Good luck

Hi,
Friend request sent. I'm fairly new here but have made some great friends. Everybody is so supportive. By sticking to the diet and exercise plan you'll be sure to lose weight and everybody here is in the same boat.

Remember.... it took a long time for your body to get the way it is now....it while take a while to get it to the way you want it.

But the important thing to remember is you can do it! Don't ever feel overwhelmed and if you do the right things and don't see progress it isn't the end of the world. It just means you most likely gained muscle

This place has held me accountable for myself and gave me a few good friends along the way. So I am sure it will work for you too! The only way to lose the fight is to give up! so if you never give up you cant lose!

Hi I am new to this too and would like to find friends to go through this transition with me - obviously it is not going to be easy so we just have to be there for each other when we are at our lowest, but remember once we reach our goal it will be all worth while

Hello. This is my first day on yet another method of my efforts to stop this yo-yo weight gain. Actually, my Dr. recommended this site. I commented that he looked really good. Now I have to set up my husband so we can be friends.
