I am so tired of being the "before" picture!!!

I have already lost 65 pounds on Weight Watchers, but really need to lose 40 more to be a healthy weight. I have struggled with binging since I was 13 and I will be turning 41 this December. I'm ready to take that next step and get healthy and stop the binging!!

My husband and I travel to beautiful locations and I want to be finally be the "after" picture. :smile:

Looking for some others to encourage me, and I can encourage them.

    65lbs is already really good! But I understand about getting to your healthy weight. I was 250lbs going in to the hospital to have my baby. I took a whole year and a half to get back down to my pre-baby weight (170lbs)...I ended up losing 20lbs getting to 155lbs and over the last year put back on 20...ugghhhh:noway: So know I am really determine to get to my health weight of 145lbs. So hang in there...You can definitley do it! Find a regimine and stick to it. :smile:

    Hi, I joined at the beginning of October, I am taking one day at a time having had endless failures and yo yo dieting. I have also found the Judith Beck diet technique helpful and will be 40 next year - she says you should find some dieting buddies so I would be pleased to link up!

    Congratulations on your fantastic weight loss so far - inspirational!

    You can add me!! I've also had issues with binge eating my entire life. It's a constant struggle and I've even gone to therapy for my binge eating. A lot of others are in our boat. I'm looking to lose about 40 lbs as well to be healthy.

    You can add me. I started using MFP to support my husband but I find that it is just a great way to eat better and feel healthier and I've managed to take a couple of inches off my waist in the process
