Hello my name is Christina and Im from Washington State. Ive been lurking a few days and just wanted to say hello. Growing up I didn't have a weight issue. Actually I was told alot that I looked like I needed to gain weight. Even after I had my first 2 kids I left the hospital wearing my pre pregnancy jeans. Then after my third child thats when it started to hit me. Now 13 years later ive went from a size 4/5 jean size to 260 lbs. I can no longer live like this and Im now commited to make a change. Thanks for all the stories and information all you wonderful people post on this site it really does help!
Welcome. Since Chicks can be overwhelming at first, I suggest you look for a support group or challenge to join; a small group of friends to help keep you motivated. Find one you like that fits your needs, or inspires you, and just post to join.
