Hi, I'm Vanessa,

I started using this site a little while ago, then fell off the wagon a little, but I'm back! I figured that maybe if i started using the message board, it'd help motivate me and keep me coming back!! I'm looking to lose 63 lbs.. (Wow. Putting that into words makes it feel like SO much... ) I had a baby 7 months ago and i'm hanging on to 13 pounds from that. My excuse so far is that my muscles hurt from my cesarean. But I'm not using that anymore! The only way to heal them is to use them! I look forward to talking with you all. I think it's really great to have a community like this where we're all striving for the same goal!! :tongue:

    Vanessa,

    Welcome! I'm new too!

    I feel you on that baby weight, except my excuse ran out 12 years ago! :happy:

    I'm hoping to get moral support here too. I want to lose about 70lbs and just get healthier; come off my BP med.

    Good Luck!:drinker:
