Hi! I'm new here, but I've been lurking for a day or so to get the feel of things around here. I like the support everyone seems to give and receive here, so I decided to join in!
My sister in law started weight watchers about a month and a half ago, and she's lost 16 pounds so far, so I checked around and found this site and Dotti's site, and have decided to do WW at home. I did my first weigh in tonight, and I hated the result. 194 pounds...not too far from the 206 I was at when I delivered my daughter almost 3 years ago, lol.
I've never been small, and when I was 25 or so I was around 150-160, and I maintained that until I got pregnant. After I had Jess the weight has just crept up on me, and I am finally ready to get it off of me for good! I'm going to do the points thing and I've decided to give up soda...I can drink DrPepper all day, and that's part of my problem. Water here I come, lol!
My goal is to be somewhere around 140....at this point 150 isn't too bad either. I'm 5'8", so I think either one of those is good for me.
Sorry this turned into such a long post! I look forward to getting to know all of you on this journey!
