in Introduce Yourself
Okkkk. so I was walking home the the blazing sun today with my two bags loaded up like a mule when my neighbor drove past.... I said hello as he honked her horn... Not thinking much of it... I go to my gate only for him to to greet me... "I didn't bother to pick you up because u are so huge i figured you needed the exercise... ((((self esteem died))))

So while searching Google to see what I could do to get myself to a healthy weight and being able to love my self image I happened upon this sight.... After my attempt to sigh up failed I realized that I was already a member as I signed up for a bb app some time back...

So I am new and looking to make changes for myself. I want to be proud of myself and be able to wear those sexy lingerie i use to wear before I gained 35-40 pounds... This accumulated during pregnancy- I figured I could eat what I wanted when I wanted... BIG MISTAKE.... My daughter is 9 months now and I think it is time to think about me...

I dont have pics... I stay farrrrr away from the camera... i do have the one from baby's day at the beach two days ago that had me thinking something was wrong with the camera... will upload that.... otherwise I have been Camera-phobic...

Add me... I need all the help I can get...

    Firstly, your neighbor is a douche. I do not like to use that kind of language, but I cannot imagine someone actually saying that to you.

    Sending a friend request your way!

    Hi,
    I'm new....trying to lose 15 pounds I gained after I lost 25 on Jenny Craig. It certainly wasn't very nice of your neighbor to say that to you.

    Anyway, if you need a friend, I'm available!

    I would have been glad the neighbor didn't pick me up. I wouldn't want to be in the car with someone who had a head that big. Snarky jerk!

    People who make fun or bring down others is due to their own insecurity. Don't let negative people bring you down !!!

    HI. I can't figure out how you are suppose to introduce yourself but I read your post and would like to be friends. I am new today to this site though I have used it for calorie counting before. I have been using another site called loseit and have lost 29.4 pounds so far but I have about 94 more pounds to lose to reach my goal of 102 and I am really getting discouraged. This site seems to offer so many more "perks" and I think I could really benefit from more guidance and as many "buddies" as I can find.

    I can so relate to your pain. I had gained weight actually right before I had my kids and then after I had them, I never lost it ( the oldest is 13 and the youngest is 9) At least you are way ahead of me.

    The catylist for me losing weight now was seeing my butt in the security camera while my husband and I were getting new tires for our car. I thought I was looking at someone else who was very large, but I moved my leg just to make sure. To my horror...it was me!

    So if I can figure this site out I would like to be friends. I sure don't want to have to keep typing my story so I hope someone will be able to tell me how to post. I kind of feel silly but I can't seem to get this on this site, lol.

    So best wishes for the new you and I think the first positive step you can make is to forgive your friend. I believe he truly thought he was being helpful and probably had no idea how hurtful his comments were. Use it to propel you forward and we will see who will be picking who up in the future! Motivation is half the battle...you got this!!!

    Stupid neighbor - sometimes people don't realize how hurtful their words can be. Forget what he said and do this for you! You can do it :smile:

    You can do something about your excess weight...your neighbor is probably too old to develope tack, intelligence and empathy. We should feel sorry for him. Good luck to you! You can do this :)

    You can lose weight, but your neighbor will probably always be a jerk. Add me if you like! And good luck to you!
