New to this site. Looking to burn off some calories

Options
Hello. My name Is Diane . I am 27 yrs old married with no children as of yet. I have been on a weight loss rollercoaster forever. I remember always being large boned and taller than all of the other girls in school as I am, 6' tall. When I met my husband we started to get into the whole newly marrried comfortable with eachother over eating phase. We took action and lost I lost 100lbs. and he lost 150.00 lbs. Then the holidays came and we backslid some I gained 30lbs. and he gained 80 lbs. back. Now we are on track again and I have lost 20 of the 30 again. Still want to loose another 30lbs. My goal is 175 lbs. and I am currently 210.00 lbs. but I am tall so I think that is a good goal for me I tend to carry my weight well. Just looking for some good motivation. I know I can do it I have done it before. I can do it again.

    Good luck with your goal. This site is awesome and really helps when you log every thing you eat and the exercise you do - you start to notice when you have bad days especially if you keep notes on your feelings. :smile:

    This site is a great start to losing weight and getting support. I have a short attention span, so I like getting ideas and feedback from here. Right now for exercise I'm using the wii fit, the games are addicting and I break such a sweat trying to get to the next level. Have fun and keep it interesting.

    I know how you feel, I'm 5'10"...so when I say my goal is 165 or 170 I feel the need to say "but i'm tall". I'm currently at 191. I lost 30lbs after my ex and I divorced, but years later when I re-married, I put on about 10 lbs of happy fat. lol. I'm ready to get down to my size 10's. (currently a 12/14) I really think this site and all the great people on it will help!

    Plus, it's nice to know there are women out there with the same body type and frame as me. I've always been the 'tall' girl.
