Finally doing the right thing. Need encouragment!

Options
All my life I had been thin. My parents are both big people and as were my siblings. I was and still am the tiniest of my family... however I went through puberty again when I was 16 due to my birth control. I gained upwards of 50lbs in 5 years. I am 5'5 and a lot of people swear I don't look like im over 150. I have been wanting to get to 136 in a long time but im lazy. I will watch so many before and after stories of people who tried hard and did well but im so inconsistent. I wanted to introduce myself and gain support because I don't have friends who have this same goal. People are more supportive when they are doing the same thing. Nice to meet ya'll my name is Amelie.

    You can add me! I'm down to 137 and just started working out as of the New Year! Takes a couple of weeks to build a new routine so give it a shot...start with simple walking or try a dvd workout. Small steps, doesn't happen overnight.
