Hello all,

Me too, in regards to trying to lose weight but I've been substanially heavy 200lbs+ for the last 13 years. Two daughters were more or less the starting cause, but why I haven't lost is more of a mystery to me. I know how to eat healthy but exercize has never been my strength (no pun intended!). I've been on WW, JC...all to no avail. I lost 30lbs.+ on JC and only 9lbs. on WW. So now I have encorporated my healthy, small-portioned meals/snacks with a gym membership and walking/hiking. It's been a week since I started the uphill hiking (butt-kicking!) and I am down 3 lbs. I'll take that..it's 3lbs. lost instead of gained or still on my body.

At 260lbs., now happily 257lbs! I know its all a start but I'll get there a few pounds at a time. Let's do it all together! We can and will!

Have a healthful day,
Amanda
