HI! I just signed up at LA Weight Loss yesterday, and I start Jet Start tommorow. I'm drinking as many Pepsi's as I can today, because for me I know that will be the hardest thing to give up. I'm SOOOOO happy to have found this board!! You guys are so supportive of one another.
I have to tell you, I'm scared, and excited. I don't know if I can do this...it's my first foray into a weight loss progam.....am I destined to fail? Yesterday at my consultation I weighed in at 232 1-2.......I put 180 as my goal, but I would like to lose more then that.......I'm just afraid to reach to high, does that make sense?
My husband tells me not to be so negative, that he knows I can do it, and I will do it. It's great to have a supportive spouse, but now I'm afraid of letting him down. He tells me that doing something about my weight for ME (I've tried before, but for the wrong reasons) tells him that I'm heading in the right direction. With my last baby I had a horrible bout of Post Partum Depression and I still have my "blue" days, but I feel like I'm coming out of that fog. (stopped taking my meds two months ago, and doing MUCH better)And I feel like I'm ready to make a serious change. I LOVE my carbs, so I know that this is going to be difficult, but I think it's time to make a change in my eating habits. I was the picky kid whose mom NEVER made them eat what they didn't like, and now I'm a picky adult. I love that this board exists, and i look forward to getting to know you all!
