Too tall to be a girl; I'm between a chick and a broad.

    I love Julia Roberts.

    Okay. Well, I'm Adri and I'm new to the site (obviously). I've never weighed more than what I do now and it's my breaking point. I refuse to be this big. I'm 5'9'' and I currently weigh 318 lbs. (Guess this means I'll be frequenting the +300s forum. Also the 20 somethings.)

    I've never tried something like this before. My ultimate goal is to weigh around 170, losing about 2-3 pounds a week.

    I'm nervous. So far, this forum looks like it's a good place for support and I've heard that support is necessary when trying to lose weight.

    Here's to hoping.

    I start my (new) exercise routine tomorrow morning.

    Welcome. Since Chicks can be overwhelming at first, I suggest you look for a support group or challenge to join; a small group of friends to help keep you motivated. Find one you like that fits your needs, or inspires you, and just post to join.

    I think its very sweet that you two have each other for support.
