The Winning Losers
This checkin is for anyone that has weight to lose, but especially for those that have 100+ pounds to lose. Losing weight takes alot of work and committment and hopefully being part of a check-in gives you a little bit of accountability. Sure, you can leave anytime you want, but once you form a connection with others in your group, you probably won't. So enough with the speech, since this is the first month, it's probably best we start with a brief intro.
My name is Elycia and I live in St. Louis, MO. I am 30, married to my best friend with twin daughters, that you can see in my avatar. I gained quite a bit of weight during my pregnancy (80 lbs to be exact), but I dropped 45 lbs within 3 weeks of having them. However, within 3-4 months I managed to gain back most of the 45 that I lost. This has been very discouraging and I am very displeased with how I look and feel. So, that is why I decided to organize a check in because I am very committed to losing this weight and want to help others if I can.
