Hello Pixie Dust I'm new here also. Just joined today. I also have about 125 pounds to lose. I am 33 and married with 2 children. My husband is also overweight. We have always been great at pulling each other off our diets. Now for the sake of our children we are hoping to change our lifestyle. Old habits are so hard to break. I would love to support and be supported. Good Luck to you.

Hey guys I also have just joined and would love to hear from ya'll! I'm 25, married, with 2 kids, 1 of which is only 7 months old and made me gain over 50lbs while I was pregnant! I want to be able to chase him when he starts crawling without hyperventilating! I'd like to hear from anybody who needs a buddy!!

Hi Elizabook,

Great to hear from you. I know exactly what you mean. I am tired of not being able to do the things that I want to with my kids. I want to be able to keep up without feeling like I am having a heart attack. This is only day 1 of my diet so my motivation is high. But I really feel like this time is different. Maybe support is that extra step.

Well I hope Day 3 of your diet is still on. Support is the answer, I'm sure of it!
Good luck to you and to everyone.

Hi everyone I too am new as of this evening....:) I am 35, married almost 19 years and my Husband is over weight also....I know what you are saying 2girlsmom. We both have talked and we both have agreed we need to lose weight and stop the "bad" habits and get to where we should be. My Husband has High Blood Pressure now and Dr. said if he lost weight he wouldn't need the meds. So I told him it is time. I am tired of feeling this way and looking this way, I am not me. I want MYSELF back! So I start tomarrow........Wish me luck! I am here for you all and I think if we all stick together we will get to our goals! :)

Hello there and welcome to all of you guys who are brand new...... if you have time you should read through the thread called "april chicks" there are 3 of them now we change after every 5 or 6 pages,(its under the support category) if you need support or even a good laugh....its a great place to go.....good luck to all!

Hi everyone. I am still going strong on day four. I am down 6 pounds and I went to Curves this morning. Good luck to you Wishtobethin. There are some great recipes on this site and so far hubby has been happy with them. He is sticking with me. It makes such a difference. He has even switched to diet soda and I can't tell you what an accomplishment that is. I hope day 1 went well. It is just 1 day at a time.
