Exclamation Weight Loss IS A STRUGGLE...

Hey everyone !!

My name is Riham, Im a 20 year old female. The reason I have joined here is because I feel like I really wanna put my story out there in order to help motivate and support others..

My way of supporting MYSELF is by posting weekly updates on my youtube channel.

I started my whole weight loss journey all over again on October 24th 2009, my weight then was at 202 pounds. A week, on November 1st I had dropped to 195 pounds... and 2 weeks in total after.. I now weight about 191-190.

My goal weight is to be 150 pounds.

Any questions what so ever..feel free to write me I will respond !!

Have a blessed day everyone !!!

Hi Riham!
It's sounds like you're off to a great start - congrats on your success so far - good luck with your goals - we're all 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 also find info and first hand advice on different plans to help 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 short time 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!

interesting poll. I put in between but really I guess the best answer would be both! Getting started was a HUGE struggle, but now it's routine. I fall off occasionally, and I plateau occasionally. So I guess easy isn't the word for it. But it's just what I do now. Quitting really hasn't occured to me, even when it's hard. That's just not an option anymore.

Hello RomanceDiva,

I see you lost a significant amount of weight, do you mind sharing how you did it? I'm looking to lose a total of 50 lbs before considering going further and I am in desperate need of some inspiration. How long did it take you to accomplish this weight loss?
