in Introduce Yourself
Hello everyone,

my name is Yvette, 33 years old and mother of 3 kids.
I've been overweight my whole life and i'm completely fed up with it! I think/hope this will be THE time for me.
I know i will have a long journey ahead of me and i am looking for people that will help me stay motivated and know how it is to have to lose so much weight. I hope i can do the same for you.
In the end i would like to lose 125 lbs, but im taking it 10 lbs at a time. Hope to hear from someone!

    welcome to MFP :) It is great to take things in small steps so much better to have these little success's along the way. Read the stickies in the forums, they are really helpful.
    I'm down 63 pounds, it was 69 but December hit & now back on track :)
    all the best in your journeys

    Hi Everyone! I am in the same boat as you all - and really need the support on here to help push through. I am 33 year old who is looking to lose weight - initially I want to loose 75lbs, but the doctor's office recommend I loose more than 100 lbs! Both are scary numbers - but it starts with each day ....I have 2 kidos, a very very long commute to a desk job and no energy! I hope to connect with you all as well!

    hey! You can add me too! I still have dont know how many pounds to lose... darent look... but it's still over 6-7 stone... have lost 3 since I first got started, but had a bit of a lapse late last year due to ongoing illness and sheer "what's the point?"
    Hoping now I'm back on it, and enrolled in a 5k assault course, that it will be the impetus I need to keep up, but friends on the same journey will help. It's always better when there's someone who's going through what you are.
