Hello!! My name is Mary and I'm sick and tired of being fat. If you were to look at me, you'd think, "oh she's not "fat" just that she could afford to loose a few pounds." I must hide it well...bc according to the calculations, I'm borderline obese!! I'm 28 years old... I cant be obese!!!

Like a lot of people, I keep saying I'm going to drop the lbs and start living better...but I'm lazy. I'll admit it. I'm currently a stay at home mom, so my activity level is super low. Cant afford a gym membership so I try to do workouts at home. Or try...again, I have a tendency to be lazy!!

My main goal, I guess, is just to stick to this program and be honest to myself about it. I'm pushing for loosing about 50lbs. I cant even imagine how good I'm going to look 50lbs later!!! I'm excited. BRING IT!!

  • Hi Mary,

    Welcome and Good Luck, I know how you feel, I was 315 pounds and thought I could never get my weight down. I did small goals of five pounds at a time. I am now down to 170 but my new goal is 169 and I am having a hard time getting there. I will keep trying till I reach 150. I am 5 4 and I know I have my work cut out for me. Have fun and enjoy
