  • I can relate...I've been overweight my entire life. And have been "dieting" for more or less 25 of my 36 years. And this February, I finally came to my breaking point of being MORE "tired of being overweight", than of being tired of the effort it would take to NOT be overweight. It's a slow process for me; its not easy.…

  • From the time I was little, I've always put everyone else first, and myself dead last (always as a result of wanting people to like/accept me even though I was fat). Always trying to please....so finally, for the first time in life, I'm putting myself first, and it feels amazing. I'm so much happier! (Of course, within…

  • Oh goodness....I can so relate to this. I was an emotional eater, had serious self-esteem issues, and spent some time in counseling which greatly helped me understand that my self worth is not tied to my weight and I'm not defined by it.

  • It's going to take me forever to add all of you! So perhaps you can help and add me? I'm a busy single mom with 3 kids and a professional career, so it gets tough to keep up with everything. Would love support from anyone willing to give it, and I will do my absolute best to give it right back!

  • EXACTLY! Our stories are SO similar...so I will just say DITTO to the whole thing! I've been on here since February, and although my weight loss is slow and steady, something is very different this time as well. I'm not obsessing about it, but am committed.

  • I've done Turbo Jam but not Turbo Fire. Turbo Jam is a lot of fun...I love doing kickboxing/martial arts type cardio, but I would say it's more a beginner type workout.
