Cool Newbie here :)
My name is Jaymee, I'm 25, I live in Southern California and I'm addicted to sweets. No really, I have a bad sweet tooth. Just to name one weekness.

A few years ago I reached my highest weight ever (297lbs) but managed to lose about 60lbs. Then I met my now fiance, got comfortable, and gained most of it back (281lbs). With the wedding quickly approaching I want to get down to 200lbs or even 220lbs would be mazing. But not only for the wedding, I want kids and at this weight that's not possible. Since starting again I'm down to 261lbs. I'm watching what I eat, and as strange as it might seem, to work out I use Nintendo's WII. It's more effective than walking 5+ miles a day.

I thought I could use a place like this to help encourage me. I have my mom, who, with the help of GB, has lost 80+ lbs but it's just not the same. If that makes any sense at all.

crazy, I am glad you have found us..this is an amazing place with support but more importantly, real answers..there is not even one here that cannot identify with your struggle...

the great news is that you are on your path to health..now THAT is something to rejoice about...this will be a gift to yourself long lasting..not simply a way to look good on your wedding day...as far as the sweet tooth--well, that was me too...and I do still like them...but what I can tell you is that it gets easier with each passing day...I imagine you know that since you have so much success in the past and thus far..

welcome to you! surf around and get comfortable..but more importantly visit us often! the community and accountability here has been paramount for me!
