HI! My name is Colleen. I am 23 and I have about 50 pounds to lose, doing this for myself and to get in shape for nursing school which I start in January.

I just found this site today and it looks to be awesome. I am excited and committed for once to really work at losing weight. Trying out the Power 90 thing, just did the first day today.

I am not new to weight loss, at the beginning of 2010 I was at a high of 230 and through Curves I got to 200, then I left cause I couldn't afford it really, but I left in April of this year and I have been quite lazy since then.

Thanks for reading! :smile:

    Welcome! I started this about 6 weeks ago and I am totally addicted. Not losing the weight as fast as I would like but the changes are obvious. Everything I eat is thought about. Feels good! :)
