Hi!!

Just wanted to introduce myself.

I'm Erin. I'm 36, and I'm from Kansas City. Soon to be married for the second time, with 7 kids and three grand kids between myself and my fiance. (Yes, I'm aware that I'm too young to be a grandma. I'm also aware that my fiance is not too young to be a grandpa, and his kids are where the grand kids came from!)

Just like a whole bunch of other people, I'm starting off this year with a resolution to be healthier, and hopefully lose a crap-ton of weight in the process. No surprises there. My other resolution is to significantly improve my status as a "hot chick."

Now, I happen to think I'm pretty hot already, but I have to admit that treating myself better will make me way, way hotter in the long run. So I'm hoping to learn a little more here about doing just that, and if I can make a few friends in the process, that's even better!

I'm glad to meet you all!!

Hey Erin!

Treating yourself better isn't just going to make you hotter, it will make you feel flipping fantastic about yourself and how wonderful you're treating you.

Jump on in and get to posting! Can't wait to get to know you better!

Hi Erin!
Sounds like you've got the making of a Brady Bunch + grandkids! - you will certainly have you hands full! - the support you need is here - we'll all be here to cheer you on.

Glad to have you join us! There are lots & lots of different groups and forums - I'm sure you'll find some that will keep you motivated, inspired and entertained - you'll be a great addtion to any of them! There's also info and first hand advice on different eating plans and exercise to help choose the right ones for you and get through the ups and downs.

There are bunches of people here with more to lose and some with less - the bottom line is that we all have to do it a day at a time. The good thing is that we'll have lots of company along the way.

I've only been here a few months myself, having NEVER been part of an online forum. What has been so eye-opening is how much it has helped me. Whenever I feel overwhelmed or defeated, I just log on and read some of the success stories, complete with their before & after photos - or read about others still dealing day to day with their challenges - and before I know it, the time has flown by and so have all the thoughts of cheating or giving up.

So welcome - you 've found the right place - join in by inspiring us and being inspired!

All the best - good luck with your goals - here's to getting even hotter,
Lee
