Default Hi Everyone

I was reading a magazine at the hairdressers today and I saw this site mentioned in an article so I was "one of those people" and ripped the page out of the magazine so I could go home and join "3 Fat Chicks". I'm 41 and have ALWAYS had a weight problem. In 2000, something snapped and I joined a gym, went to a nutritionist and lost 75 pounds. 125 at 4'11". I was BORN 125! I was psyched! Then, well, I don't know. I still go to the gym (4 - 5 days a week - weight lifting and cardio), but I was very "kind" to myself. And I also had too many pity parties because my life didn't change like I thought it would. So I'm around 164 now, give or take. My pants are cutting of my circulation even as I type, and I'm just MKAD at myself. So it's time to try and turn things around. My goal is 145. God, I remember when I was on my way back up and 145 was horrendous...now I just want to get there again. Kinda sad.
