Journey of Change- I'm Cheryl

  • Hello All! I am new here! It's exciting to go through and read about the success so many wonderful ladies here have reached.

    I am at the highest weight I have ever been at. 360 lbs. I cannot continue to make excuses. I need to make changes. I hate being this size. I keep a smile on the outside as a fun, confident woman, however I am always assessing and guessing what people think of me, or how awful they must think I look.

    Rather than feeling sorry for myself and eating more I want to start a journey of change. I have tried many things before, and have not been able to stick with one certain plan.

    I am glad I found this forum and I look forward to getting to know people here and making some new friends.


    Thanks for reaching- Ready Set Go!

  • Hello!
    I am relatively new to this forum but not to the struggle. I think you will benefit from the experience of others on the boards, but the key is to find a plan that you can live with for the rest of your life.
    Looking forward to reading more of your posts.
    Best of luck.
  • Hi Cheryl! I'm new too and am really excited about this! I hope to keep tabs on your journey and use your experience to motivate myself.
  • Hey Cheryl! I know the challenges of being overweight, and I know exactly what you mean when you say you are always guessing or assessing what people think of you. Allowing myself to be overweight for so long has created a high level of anxiety in my head. Let's lose weight together, okay? Then not only will we be fun and confident, but we will also look great and feel great!
