Hello,
My name is Jessica and I am 31 years young. I have struggled with my weight my whole adult life so far. I have tried pretty much every diet out there and nothing ever seemed to work. 2 years ago I had to have my gull bladder removed and it made me so sick I lost 30lbs in 2 months. Well obviously I was ecstatic. I kept it off for about 8 or 9 months and now I am heavier than I have ever been. My BP has shot through the roof and I find out tomorrow what my cholestoral looks like. I am worried because I can't imagine it will be good.
I am a reality show junky and I started watching Celebrity Fit Club this year and thought Hmmmm, maybe i should take a look at this diet plan. I ordered the Fat Smash book and Once i started to read it i got super duper excited. I truly feel this is the end all diets for me, not to mention i have my health to worry about.
So I just wanted to stop in and introduce myself and say i can't wait to get started and I am looking forward to the opportunity to get to know some people who are in my shoes

Jessica. Jump right in and join the process. Changing your eating habits as well as your life can lead to healthy living. Just make sure what you choose is doable for life.

Hi Jessica

I am also 31 and want to lose about the same amount of weight as you, 105 lbs. I've been on this forum for about 3 weeks and really like it so far.

Good Luck, and welcome!

Hey Jessica!! You sound really devoted!! Just be sure to listen to what jigglefree said...you've got to be sure this is something you're gonna do for the rest of your life. I've only lost 8lbs but I've accepted that mine and my families ways of eating have officially changed!! There are so many threads on here that tell you so many different ways to cook veggies and so many healthy recipies!! I hope you find the support and motivation I have!! Good luck!!

Thanks guys for all of your warm welcomes :0). I posted this in the fat smasher's thread so you may know already but I got my blood work back wednesday and basically I am a walking ball of cholesterol. I have no choice but to really make a life change or I might not make it to watch my son grow up. I am going to officially start the fat smash diet on monday (need to get the cahs for food) so I can't wait. I have already started walking for thirty minutes and I can't believe how out of shape I am. But I know that will get better. I will definitely be on here a lot for support and to keep track of my progress. Again thanks again :0)

The wait is killing me
