So, I've been at this whole weight loss thing for about ten months. I've lost about 23 pounds, maybe. I say "about" and "maybe" because I didn't even weigh myself for about 9 months, so I'm not really sure where I started. I kind of fell off the wagon around the holidays, but in mid January I decided to get serious. It also helped that my partner, also here on this site, got on board the whole healthy-eating-exercise routine/lifestyle with me, and that has made a world of difference. I figure I had originally about 50 plus pounds to lose, starting in the obese range, and now I'd love to get down to a non-overweight range, settling in to about 132 pounds with a waist size of about 24-25. Since I now have the support of my partner, I suppose it couldn't hurt to have all I can get, lol. I am the type that can quit pretty easily when discouraged. Since January 22nd I've dropped 12 pounds and at least an inch pretty much everywhere I measure. Yay me! Looking forward to meeting people with my same goals....to be healthy and fit!

Thanks, ladies! I have been on this site about a week and a half now, and this is my first adventure into the "community", so I'm still figuring out how it works. I initially thought I'd only just put in my food and exercise and be done with it, but I guess I do need support more than I figured I would LOL. Yes, I have to laugh at myself.0

Welcome! Add me if you'd like, I also have had trouble with health and weight loss until my significant other also got serious about taking care of himself. We do it together now and it's much easier. I would be glad to be apart of your support system!0
