Well, I'm back again. I didn't stick to my goals and plans and now I am back in the weightloss game - but this time 25lbs heavier than I was last time I was here. This is the heaviest I have ever been including during my pregnancies. I have to say I was quite shocked when I saw the number on the scale

Well a new year and a new start. My name is Sarah and I have 75lbs to lose to reach my goal weight. This time hubby is working on losing weight with me so maybe that will make it easier, but even if it doesn't I realize that this is something I really NEED to do for me.

Hope to chat with you all soon.

Welcome!

What kind if eating plan are you and your husband doing? Have you found any threads that are helpful? Just ask! We're here for you.

Hi all,
I am also here to reintroduce myself. I have not been on this for many years.
My eating is out of control. My husband is a diabetic and is also in need of some control.
I am starting on the south beach diet Phase 1 and will need a lot help in the next 2 weeks. Is there a south beach forum?
We are planning a 3 week vacation to vegas and florida in late January and would like to lose some pounds by then. Hepl!

You betcha! Here you go ...

Soontobe, that's great that your dh is working with you. I am jealous!

Best of luck with your goals.

I can SO relate. I gained weight from a medication several years ago and ended up around 20 lbs. more than I had ever been at 9 months during any of my 3 pregnancies. I was stunned and could hardly believe it.

But if I could lose it, so can you. It's totally worth it, believe me.

Right now I am just focusing on portion control, daily exercise, and making sure I get my water intake in every day. Oh and also avoiding slushies - my major roadblock! I LOVE my slushies

It is nice to have him working with me...nice to have that extra added support.
