Hello, I'm Brittany and I need to lose weight.

I've put on a significant amount of weight ever since I entered a relationship. I've gained about six pounds per month for the past seven months as a result of eating out frequently and not working out as much as I used to. I went from an all time low of 145 to an embarrassing high of 190.

I'm desperate, but willing to work on it. Though sometimes I slip, like tonight (fried shrimp.) So I am interested in finding a weight loss mentor/buddy who knows the ropes and knows what works.

Thank you.!

i think we all slip at one day or another. like for the last few days i've wanted to go to pizza hut and last night had a slice of cake and mini pack of maltesers (which i shouldn't have). what i've discovered is that if you slip it doesn't matter if you're exercising. sometimes your body just wants things you know you should't have!

Anyway, welcome to the boards and good luck with the weight loss
