Hi from CT
 

Hi Everyone! I have struggled with my weight since I hit puberty and tried all sorts of diets, some semi-successful some disastrous. I lost about 100 lbs my senior year of high school but within 5 years had gained it all back plus some! I am now 30 and my health is suffering from my poor lifestyle choices so I am attempting again to get myself healthy! I have to admit in high school I lost weight very unhealthy so I know this will be a much longer process but hopefully a more long lasting one! I just signed up for WW.

I need to lose 150 lbs when all is said and done, but I'd like to start by giving myself smaller more achievable goals. To begin I am looking to lose 20 lbs by Dec. 9. Now that may not be a ton of time, but I am hoping given how much I need to lose, and with some help and support I can achieve it. I am going on a cruise that day and would love to be able to say I reached my 1st goal by then.

I look forward to chatting with everyone! The last time I lost a lot of weight I was part of a different online forum and it really helped encourage me!
Sorry I babble lol

Welcome, Tiffany!

WW is a great program and definitely a healthier way to lose weight than some. Whatever method you use, the key to not regaining is to see is a lifestyle you are adopting for life, not as a diet. We rebound in weight when we go back to the same bad habits that caused us to get fat the first time. WW will teach you some great skills.

Welcome to 3FC! Looking forward to seeing you around!
