    You can add me too. I am 5'7, maybe 5'8...can't remember which one I chose for this since age and Rx steroid use has cost me some height. I too have gained a lot of weight with steroids and gave up the idea of being thin and healthy for a long, long, time. I want to lose about 90 lbs. and this time I will! Let's help eachother.

    Hi- I will be your friend!
    I had thyroid cancer in 2006 and my thyroid was removed. In 2007, I got pregnant with our 3rd child-suprise!-and gained 75 + lbs. The day before he was born, I was at 225. I was so uncomfortable, I could hardly move. The birth was complicated and ended in emergency c-section and I lost 2 liters of blood, but was not given a transfusion. As a result of this, I was not "myself" for almost 6 months. No weight seemed to come off. I was totally miserable. When my son was almost 1, I decided that I was going to get rid of the weight. I started walking with my jogging stroller. I walked 7 or 8 miles a day. The weight started coming off. Once that happened, I got motivated and went back to my gym. I tend to fluctuate in different seasons.....Christmas is especially bad for me because I love to eat and bake, etc. I am not trying to lose a lot right now, but I understand where you are. It took 3 years for my thyroid meds to regulate, and I have been cancer-free for almost 6 years now. I no longer blame my weight on my thyroid stuff-in fact, I forget about it totally until it is time to go for a check up. All I can tell you is just hang on! The weight will come off. The food diary on MFP has been a huge help for me. I found that I was eating a LOT more than I thought. The support here is great-lots of great people! Welcome!

    Feel free to add me. I started 3 weeks ago. I started with needing 45 pounds to lose. I lost 15 so far. I am getting more nervous about how to keep losing and not hit plateaus.

    Im new here aslo. I have apx 60lbs to lose. Ive been working at it for 2 months now, although, I am new to the site. I started working with a personal trainer back in November, after seeing results from my co-workers who are using the same trainer. The gym offers a lot of incentives for weight loss, and works at making it fun. Right now, my office is involved in the "Biggest Loser Challenge", thru the gym, with weekly weigh ins, and prizes for the highest percentage of body fast lost each week.
    Im going into this with the mindset of living a healthier lifestyle. I have set a persona fitness goal of being able to compete in a 5K in March. Even though, Im sure I will be walking most of it. At least Im trying, and getting off the couch.
    I would love any new friends on this site that can help with the support and encouragement.

    Karla
