Default Looking for people who relate to me

Hi. I'm new. I am hoping to find people who can relate to me.
I am a 40 something woman. I have 2 grown children and a 12 year old.
I am a working mom with a husband who loves me but just doesn't "get it" in regards to my needing support to lose weight.
so I'm looking for a little moral support from people who do "get it"

hope to hear from someone soon.
Happy Healthy Living.
Good luck you you all.

Angieks, I believe many of us have spouses/significant others who just don't "get it"! My DH has never been negative about my weight, has never said one bad word, but sometimes I DO need to talk about it, whether it's frustration, or cheering for myself because of a great weigh-in. The people here do get it, so feel free to share! Good luck to you!

Thank you for all of your support. I was kind of nervous not having done this before. Worried about saying the right things and all.
But now that I have been welcomed I feel better already.
I know with friends that understand I can make this happen for good this time.
Like most of you this is NOT the first time I have tried to lose weight. And have lost lots of weight only to regain it soon after. So I know with your help I will get active, get healthy and be happy.
Again thank you to everyone who replied to my very first message.
I hope I can be a friend to all of you.
good health to you!
