Default Hey there! From Jackson, WY

Hey y'all!

I just joined this site about 45 minutes ago . . . after learning about it earlier this afternoon and spending a couple of hours browsing around the threads and the photos.

Y'all are awesome!



Incidentally my listed starting weight was from 21 years ago, I was wearing a very tight size 32 pants and the seams were so stressed and so stretched that there was literally daylight between the seams - they didn't meet, and they were literally hanging on by a threa.

I haven't been that weight nor that size in 20 years . . . and I started not to list it as my starting weight . . . but I don't want to discount where I came from.


Thanks for reading.
Y'all be blessed.

To get a ticker you have to be a member for 20 days and then it will let you add one. There are a few different sites that give you different options for the ticker. I wanted to do inches instead of pounds cuz I"m weight lifting. It all depends on the units you enter so you could do sizes for sure! Good luck!!

Hi SharMar
I am new here, and posted my high weight which was 5 years ago. I have come a long way, but still have a ways to go. I love it when I can wear a size smaller or something looks better, or I can ride my bike further.
I am meeting great people here and we all have a similar goal, from where we each have started, individually.

Me, I am hoping that one of these pounds my belly finally starts going away.

Hey Rose, MissRicer, midwife, luckybustert and Lexxiss!

Thank you all so much for such a wonderful, warm welcome! I also appreciate the information y'all have given me!

I've been spending the past couple of days looking through the photo albums on this site. Wow! Awesome stuff!
