My name is Toni, I have been over weight for about 20 years now. It started with my first child and only became worse after my second daughter. I got on the scale 6 months ago and it read 286 and I about died!!! I started right then!!! No soda or sweets, cut my calories, and started walking every day. I have managed to loose 52 pounds on my own but now I am at a stand still. I found this site and I have just joined today but I already love it. I hope and pray that my loosing will start back up. At least I have not gained, so that is a good thing. Support from other people means so much and it looks like the people on this site are very supportive. I am excited at the possibilities and so glad that I stumbled onto this site:O)

    Welcome! I have lost about 34 pounds using this site. First 3 months went quickly but the loss seems to slow down the longer you do this. You may want to check out the group eat more 2 weigh less. If you have been dieting on your own and don't lose they may be able to help. Good luck!
