I posted a while back about re-starting Low-Carb, but I quickly fell off of that train. I have decided that I am not going to get any thinner unless I do something about it. My sister is getting married in July, and she has asked me to be the matron of honor. Of course, she would pick out a strapless dress for me to wear So, I HAVE to look good because those pictures will last forever. I am a size 18/20 now, and my goal is to be at least a 12 by then. My long-term goal is to be a size 8.
I also plan to exercise 3 to 5 times a week, even if all I do is walk on a treadmill with hand weights.
I hope I will be here more often for motivation, and I can stay on the train this time!

Welcome back Kelly!

I am back here again too. I have my daughters wedding in October to lose weight for so I hope to be to a size 14 by then. I know I can do it with Atkins and some hard work so here goes. I know you can do it too maybe we should team up and help each other.

Thanks, ladies!
Welcome back to you as well, Leah! Teaming up sounds like a plan to me!

I am excited this time around. I just picked up the new People magazine with the "Half Their Size" articles, and I am going to look at it frequently for motivation.

Hi

I read that article too. Great motivation

I am working on getting my water intake up and my coffee intake down. That is my first goal for this week. Plus sticking to healthy eating.

Welcome all, the more Kelly's the better!!!

I believe in this WOE and I believe in the support of others. You all can do this. Check in on the weekly chat - we often confess our failings and hop back on the wagon. We often celebrate each others success, which helps boost us all. Look forward to seeing you around the site!
