On a journey...

Hello community!

A bit about myself: I have been 145-155 pounds my entire life, since I was about 15. There was a three year exception to this rule when I weighed 180. Two and a half years ago I lost that weight and I am now back to 155. It has been a struggle but I have kept it off.

I am about to turn 29 in March and would love to lose ten pounds. the reason for this is that most of my extra weight is concentrated in the tummy area, so I am worried about my future and the health effects that tummy fat brings. There is no rush - I just want to do it for my health. So that is why I am here. I have been able to maintain but unable to lose weight in a few years, so I just need a little extra help, encouragement, support.

It's hard! I love life and food and wine. Recently I have joined a local pool and am trying to work myself up to swimming laps 5 days a week. I am at 3 days right now.

Anyways, I look forward to the forums.

Good luck to everyone else with their own journey and plans... Peace to all!
