I'm so new I had a hard time figuring out how to post, and I may still do it wrong.

I'm Lisa with 30 lbs to lose. I never lose it because I know I can, but why? Instead I keep living my life the same way in resentment and wish I had lost the weight.

But this year I'm taking advantage of the clean slate a new year brings and I've enlisted my sister to support each other in our weight loss goals. She lives 6 hours away but we can talk on the phone, etc.....

I'm posting as my commitment to do this. I don't know you guys but I just told you all my goal and now it's real. I feel really embarassed, interesting feeling considering this is a safe way to communicate.

I'm so grateful to have this forum, my husband is fit, eats well and doesn't understand why I just don't do it. Thanks so much.

    Hey Ikshebesta!
    It's very hard but it is just something you have to set your mind to and just do it! I lost weight before and let it all come right back because I stopped caring about me. Now it is time to care for YOU and do this for yourself!:bigsmile: You can do this and don't let anyone get in your way!!
