Wake up call

Hi. I'm Cindy. I'm 5'6" and weigh 234 lbs.
YUCK.
I was at a football game tailgating with friend this past weekend and pictures were taken and put on FB.
I was tagged and actually removed the tag because I was embarrassed by what I looked like.
Wake up call that its time to do something about this weight.

I gained a good amount of weight while on fertility treatments in 1999-2000. Only gained 16 lbs with my first pregnancy, but
never lost it. Then gained another 18lbs with my 2nd pregnancy and never lost that. So here I am 74 lbs more than when I got married and I'm just disgusted with myself for letting it get this bad.

I'm an emotional eater and I know I have to find ways to curb that. Thought this site would be an excellent reminder of what I'm eating each day. Hope it works!

You are in the right place. So many people have had great success here.
For me it was a picture at Christmas, I looked like I was in a Santa fat suit. I have lost over 20lb in the past 2 1/2 months.
