    I am sorry you don't have that support at home maybe once they see how good you are doing it will be a kick in the pants. Just be forewarned that they may start to sabotage you. I have heard from others in situations like yours. Stay strong to your goals and relish in the support of friends online. I would love to also be a cheerleader/ workout buddy for you! I still have 70+ lbs. to go and I am hoping to get there by Halloween which will be my 2 year anniversary for starting this journey again. Good luck Sweetie!! You can accomplish ANYTHING if you just BELIEVE!

    oh my land, I just read your 'timeline' and you have lost 146 lbs??? that is absolutely encouraging! Way to go.
    I'm so very new to mfp and would love to know how to use it (in an easy way). I work full time and have 2 kids. Life is real! (and busy!) smile...

    Look forward to hearing back from you!
    Thanks!

    Hi! I just started this week myself. I haven't lost anything yet and currently getting acclimated as well as researching for the right diet for me.
    I can use all the motivation I can get and I would love to encourage as much as I am able to. Count me in!!

    Wow! Congrats on your weight loss! You are a sure inspiration! I am just starting out. Any tips? I would like to loose about 20 lbs to start out and I certainly need to tone up.
    How often do you work out? What sort of diet do you follow?

    @dsoto1123: It's not that my husband doesn't want me to do well. It's just not convenient for him that I'm making healthier dinners & get home just a little later because I went to the gym. The funniest part of it, though, was when I was on the floor doing crunches. I said, laughing, "you know, you could get down here with me!" He replied, "No thanks! I've done crunches before!" When he says "before," he means probably 10 years ago. lol

    @trustinthelord: There is a ton of stuff on this site & I'm sure you're probably feeling overwhelmed by all of the info, the community forums, & the trackers. There's just so much to look at! You just have to jump in & everyone will accept you. This site is amazing... no judgment & tons of encouragement! :-)
