Hello. Again..
 

I would like to introduce myself, again, sort of. I had an account on this site a few years ago and barely used it, at all. I wanted to lose weight but was never really all that serious about it. I had always wanted to lose weight for someone else, to make them happy or to make them think better of me. Now I want to lose weight for myself. I want to look in the mirror and be happy and not have my son (when he gets a little older) to be ashamed to have the "chubby" mom. So here I am once again. I am looking forward to all of the wonderful support!

My name is Wanda. I am 26 (27 in June) and have been married for 5 years (6 in September) and we have a soon to be 5 year old son. I love to read and I love the internet. I am a huge music person as well. So yep, just wanted to say hello to everyone and I am truly excited to be here!

Right now I weigh 180lbs and am 5'7". I was never a chubby girl growing up and didn't gain my weight until I became pregnant. I just never lost it either. My first goal will be 5 lbs by May 2, 2008. My ultimate goal is, I would love to get back around the 135-132 mark. That is about what I weighed around the time I found out I was pregnant. Baby steps.. Baby steps.. :D

Hi Wanda! We're very close in age, and our sons are, too! My son is 6 (7 in Sept) and I have a daughter as well, who is 4 (5 in Nov). Good luck!

Thank you so much! :hug:

Hi Wanda! The best of luck to you - I love this site, it is really helpful. I hope you reach your May 2nd short term goal, and that you stay positive while doing it!

Hi there & :wel3fc:

Baby steps, indeed. :yes: So, tell us. How are you planning on losing the weight? (Other than forever ;)) Any certain program? Going to a gym? Let us know! There are plenty of places to post. So please do!

Best of success!!!

:welcome3:

:welcome: I'm also 26 going on 27, but I don't have a hubby or kids yet. Good luck!
