Hello everyone.
I have been lurking for several days now and am so impressed with this site. I have seen lots of support and great advice here. I have not seen any snarky or rude comments at all which is so very unusual in cyberland. I just had to come out of lurkdom and join you all.
I'll try not to bore you with too many details... I am a 39 year old SAHM of 3 good kids (ages 12, 10, and 5). I am determined that I will lose a big chunk of weight (63 lbs) by my 40th birthday in August. I am blessed with a very supportive husband who is also attempting to lose weight along with me. We have tried this weight loss thing several times since we were married 15 years ago but so far we haven't been too successful. For some reason this time feels different and we are both confident that we will get to our goal weights.
We are doing Weight Watchers at home using old material from our last attempt. We just bought a home gym which we are both swearing will not become a dusty coat rack.
Anyway... I guess that intro got pretty long! I'm looking so forward to getting to know you all better!
