WOW.. hi everyone.. I'm soo glad this thread got this many responses.. I know we can all do it... well as for me.. this is my plan.. I cut out junk from my diet.. nothing drastic and I drink a (generic) weigh loss shake for breakfast.. (convienent).. and I'm trying to downsize my portions.. so far I do great for breakfast and lunch.. but when I come home it's a different story.. but I have to take it one step at a time.. next week I'm gonna start walking.. my husband and I just moved into our newly built first home.. and we have a 70 lb dalmation that refuses to run in the yard.. he just lays on the porch by the door.. so we need to get him in shape to.. I hate to say it but hes fat... so here we goooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!

Hey, count me in! I need some buddies to keep me motivated, and to motivate, during this weight loss journey.

I have a little less than 130 lbs to lose. I've been overweight since my early 20's, and I'll be 38 in August. That's a LONG time to be heavy! I'm tired of being told how pretty my face is, like the rest of me is not worth anything...

Dee -

I am so glad I saw your post. I want a buddy too and am so in need of having some kind of support system.

I am 30, just had a baby ( she's 4 months old tomorrow), and my husband leaves for Iraq in June for one year.
I had SERIOUSLY considered weight loss surgery, but just want to really do it with good exercise and eating habits.
I have 130 lbs to lose also!

We can do it! Right.??
