Hi,
I'm so happy to find this site! I believe that having support and having the opportunity to support others is just what I need to succeed. I don't know why.. but I know that this is where I want to belong. Real ppl, real lives and honest "been there done that" shared advice. There is something about struggling together that feels more supportive to me than some skinni mini selling me their plan that's guaranteed to work
Iv'e wasted so much $ on trial and error. Mostly error
.
My story is that I turn 50 in a couple of weeks. I was fairly slender in my younger years, but the last 15 or so years I have gained and misplaced(but not lost because I always find it again) weight. I have a goal to to be Fab instead of Fat as I cruise into my Golden years. They should be golden. I deserve them to be golden! I'm smarter, wiser and more focused than I have ever been. Youth was indeed wasted on me
. I'm ready to be fit and happy and so excited about making new friends and sharing the support that we all need and deserve to reach our goals of feeling better about ourselves and our self images.
My goal is to lose 31-35 lbs and keep the weight off from that point. I dont have a set date that I would like to reach my goal. Obviously sooner than later
but I want to do it right and have it stick this time. I have been so bad about crash dieting and then ignoring and going back to my bad patterns only to find out I'm even worse off when the weight catches up and keeps rising before I get control again. I'm ready for a lifestyle change intstead of a lifestyle cycle. Thanks for reading. Can't wait to meet everyone!
