New and overwhelmed!
 

Hi! I am new to this site so I am not quite sure of how to find "groups" that I would fit in to sooo... let me tell you about me and let you decide. I am 38 yrs old, married, and a mother of a beautiful 17 yr old dancer :dancer: . I consider myself at least 35 lbs over weight. I am on week 9 1/2 of the Nicoderm patch :carrot: (just quit smoking after 31 yrs-started at age 7!!:nono: ) and I have recently joined a gym. I have gained weight (but lost inches) since joining but I am getting discouraged with the number game:shrug: .
Please let me know of any groups that are going for my kinda story (I know there has to others like me out there:spin:

Good luck to all in your goals!!!

Hi Try, Welcome to 30 somethings. I'm sure you will find a lot of support here. Join us on the "Week of" thread stickied at the top of the page.

Tammy--First of all..Congrats on quitting smoking!!!!:carrot: :carrot:
The weight gain is ok since muscle weighs more than fat and U have lost inches..Just leave the scale alone at first and watch the tape measure...
Welcome to our group!!
