in Introduce Yourself
My weight has gone up and down allllll my life and it's currently at its peak and I'd love a bit of help from anyone willing to lend it. I'm thinking my mid twenties has my metabolism slowing down and I actually have to watch what I eat and drink now haha.....no bueno!

I'd love to develop a good support system with some positive people.....anyone? :)

    Hello everyone,

    I am a middle aged mom of 6 who is finally going to make a permanent change in the way I eat and look at food and most of all be ACCOUNTABLE for my actions whhen it comes to putting food into my mouth. I am also going to learn not to be a stress eater anymore either! I am looking to make friend that are similiar in the same attitudes and who need to lose a ton of pounds in order to live past the age of 60. I am shooting towards losing as close to 250 pounds as possible! So, if you are like me please shoot me a reply because I am looking for emotional support to help me be successful with my goal and I hope to achieve it within 2 years! I am encourage so far with my early success! Glad to be a part of this community! :)

    I too was talked into joining this site by a good friend of mine who knows of a banker in town who lost a ton of weight on the program and looks great! I am hoping for the same results since I have alot of health issues because I am very overweigh. I have lost weight before but I have always regained it and then some. This time I cannot fail because my life depends upon it.

    And yes, my metabolism did slow down quite a bit once I left my teens and unfortunately it only seems to get harder the older we get - I am in my early 40's right now. In the couple of weeks I have been a member - it will be 2 weeks Monday - I have lost almost 10 pounds by being accountable!
