Hello! I'm new to this site...came across it when searching for diet information. I am a classic yo-yo and fad dieter. I have found great success with many diets but failed to make any lifestyle changes. And of course the weight came back with a vengeance. I spent last summer in jeans and big shirts because I hated the way I looked. I couldn't enjoy my kids, family, or my friends. My lowest point came when I applied for life insurance and they informed me that I was too heavy to qualify for premium rates. My goals at this point are to like how I like, spend more time with my friends and family, get fit, and spend the summer in summer clothes. Today I weigh 205 pounds and would like to be 165 pounds. It's a big goal for me but I think I can reach it. Can't wait to get to know my fellow fitness pals!
