Ive just found this site last night and decided to join up as I am going through yet another plateau and could use the motivation this board offers. Ive lost about 72lbs so far since around May of 2008. I was 280, am now 208. My short term goal is 155lbs, then from there my long term goal is 125. Im just past my mid twenties and had gotten down to 190 a couple of years ago but I had horrible anxiety and was put on meds, and gained all the weight back. When I realized how much Id gained, I got off the meds as soon as I didnt need them anymore and began my weightloss journey, again. Anyways, its nice to meet you all... It will be nice to have others to go through this with!
Wow your sound like a success story already. You are amazing. Please it sounds like you are a fountain of weight loss information...welcome, I too am new. I just found this site yesterday and can't seem to keep off.
There are a lot of good people here from what I have read so far and a really good support group for some of us who are too shy face to face.
Thank You for the compliments, 905mom! While I certainly do not yet feel like a success story, I guess at a point I kind of do, now that you bring it up. Only in the sense that I can stick with what im doing now, without letting myself give up, I know that I *will* become a success story. I used to believe I couldnt do it, for most of my life. Now I know that I can, and so can anyone in the world, if its what they want! I actually learned a lot through the man I was seeing then later married, he was into body building and taught me a lot of things I didnt know about nutrition, he saved my life. If you'd like a "keeping on track to a healthy way of life buddy", let me know and we can help each other out via email, mssgs through here or etc I also thought the people here seemed fabulous and so supportive of eachother! Thank You and you as well!! Im sorry for the lengthly reply! lol
That would be awesome...I would love it if we could be buddies. You definately are a success story in my books.
I've been up and down with my weight for years but this time my health has really taken a hit and I need to do some thing fast but for the long run...
It's wonderful to hear that you met someone who can help you and teach you about the importance of nutrition. That is such a key point in permanent weight loss.
Tonight, I will send you a personal message we can get more familiar with each other.
