Hello. My names Christi, 33 years old from Fort Worth Texas. I have 2 boys that are almost 8 and 12 and I have a good 90lbs to lose! I cant seem to get past day 1. My job is crazy stressful and my mom living with me doesnt help (she's not real positive). Anyways, its nice to meet everyone!

Hi Christi,

It's nice to meet you too; welcome to the board! I too, have to lose a total of about 90 lbs. I've already lost a little over 25 lbs, and hope to reach my goal by the end of the year. Don't let negative people get you down! Take one meal and one day at a time and stick to your plan. You can do this!

Welcome fellow Texan! You've found a great place for support. Here's to a great Day 2!

I'm just up the road from you in Denton!

You CAN do this.

In January I couldn't do even one real sit-up. Now, I can do 20. I can do 20 push ups. I could hardly do squats, now I can do 100. And, I've lost over 20 pounds in less than a year. I'm 64 years old. I don't have children to look after, but it's about focus. FOCUS on your health. If you have to put the children first, think of your health as primarily important for them. Don't talk to your mom about it, come to these boards. You'll find great help here.

Take your time, aim for one pound a week. Use these boards, and check out weight loss on the Mayo Clinic website.
