Chubbygirl253 07-09-2012 11:25 PM

I'm gonna lose it and keep it off this time!
 
My name is Laura. User name is Chubbygirl253 and I just started a blog on here Confessions of a chubby girl... so more to come on that!

I lost 68 lbs on weight watchers 5 years ago but I gained it back and so when I decided a few weeks ago to try again I was literally at the biggest I have ever been. (18 pounds higher than my 2007 starting weight)

So I started ww again on June 17th and so far I have lost 9 lbs! It would be more but I stumbled a bit on my birthday weekend. Just turned 35 last week. My wish is that by my next bday I won't be fat anymore. My starting weight was 330 but I'm on my way! (I'm doing the old version of ww because I don't care for the points plus version)

I have a wonderful boyfriend, Stephen who is so loving and supportive! And he loves my curves so I know he thinks I'm beautiful no matter what!:hug:

I have no kids of my own but I have a little nephew who is two and Stephen has a daughter who is three. I plan to have the little ones take me for walks since they have boundless energy!

My goal weight is 165 which I think would be a healthy size for someone 5'7 and it is also exactly half of my starting weight. Hard to admit I need to lose half my body weight. That's a whole person! But I'm gonna do it!

Good luck to everyone!

AGE: 34

MARITAL STATUS: newly married

CHILDREN/AGES: trying for!

HOBBIES/INTERESTS:

PETS: adult dog, love her

TOP WEIGHT: 235 about five years ago. I was usually just above 200 though, for the past 10 years. I have gone down to 160 last year.

CURRENT WEIGHT: 180

GOAL WEIGHT: 140

HEIGHT: 5'4

EYE COLOR: hazel

HAIR COLOR: brown

OCCUPATION:

GEOGRAPHIC LOCATION:

BLOG or PERSONAL HOMEPAGE URL: working on it

WHAT IS YOUR BIGGEST PROBLEM IN WEIGHT LOSS: Sticking to the lower calories. Even if I eat a healthy 1700 I feel too hungry the next day to continue. Also planned exercising sessions, I just hate to exercise. But I will go for a longer walk or bike ride so I do get some activity.

WHAT IS DIFFERENT THIS TIME THAT WILL MAKE YOU SUCCESSFUL: Trying not to weigh myself too often. As women our weight fluctuates due to bloating different times of the month. Its best to weigh myself once or twice a month. But its hard to resist seeing progress.

ANYTHING ELSE YOU WOULD LIKE PEOPLE TO KNOW ABOUT YOU? I'm glad for being a member of this community. I'm trying to get up to 20 posts so I can have a fabulous ticker :) :D
