Hey everyone! I CRIED when I first found this website because it was a dream come true. I am 29 years old and when I was 19 years old I was a nice little 145 pounds. Still on the higher end of the scale but it felt right on me and I am sure interested in being back there. I tipped the scales this year at 270 pounds which means I am 125 pounds off.
Since it's taken me ten years to get here, I am dividing my weight loss goals into years. Saying "I need to lose 125 pounds" sounds absolutely awful. Saying "I need to lose 12.5 pounds" sounds much more manageable!
1999- 257.5
2000- 245
2001- 232.5
2002- 220
2003- 207.5
2004- 195
2005- 182.5
2006- 170
2007- 157.5
2008- 145
There! That looks easy! (groan)
Anyway, I am Amy, I am here to give and take some of this great support and hope we all get where we are going.
