Hello,

Let's just say that this weight loss thing isn't easy ! I have had two kids in the last three years and gained weight but have not lost all of it. I am discouraged and my body is so different now. I was once thin and now I am overweight. I really want to lose weight because in my mind I know that I will feel better and have more confidence in the way I look. I feel like it is totally my fault...that I just let myself go....but when I sit next to my thin friends...I eat less than them and still can't manage to lose weight.

So today, I join this site in hopes to find people like me that have the hopes of finding the motivation and the inspirations from those who have their own weight issues.....

Thanks for listening ! And YOU CAN DO IT !!!!

Cyn

    Glad you joined. I am in the same boat you are. I did weight watchers and lost 50+ lbs and maintained or 8 years, then I got married and began staying at home. I can say that it is great to have a support group of peers that understand what you are going through. Good luck and let the journey begin!
