Don't call me skinny.
I have been overweight my entire adult life. Even when I felt good about myself I was always in the overweight part of the chart. Right now I have lost every single overweight pound I had.

Cool! Try it. Put a sticker on yours and see how…

words of encouragement.

Hi I am new
Hi everyone, My name is Nikki, I'm 40 and have about 40-50lbs to shed. I used to be slim and healthy and I loved it, it's taken 2 years to realize the weight I was gaining was not going away but increasing. Every day I wake up and see the wobbly bits, feel guilty and unfit. I keep promising myself I will start tomorrow!…

TUT! what on earth was I thinking, I can get…
