in Introduce Yourself
Hi! I'm Kim... new here, 4 days into my latest attempt at losing weight. So far, so good. :) I made a bet with my husband... well, more like a deal... If I can lose - WHEN I LOSE - 100 pounds, he will buy me the Canon DSLR that I've been wanting. It's going to take a while, I know, but it's been a long time since I felt this "good" about trying to drop weight. I managed to lose 55 pounds back in 2000/2001 but a lot of different life/stress/emotional factors have led to me gaining what I lost, plus some :(
I have support of friends and family, but support of others trying to do the same lifestyle change will really benefit me.
Any questions? Just ask... :)

    :flowerforyou: Welcome...

    You can and will do this...this is an amazing site..every pound I have lost, I have lost through this site! :flowerforyou:

    All I can recommend is..drink plenty of pure water..straight from the tap...and add a lot of friends...they will help you through the tough time (they will come unfortunately) but with plenty of people around you, it makes the journey so much easier!

    Good Luck...feel free to add me as a friend :flowerforyou:
