    I have struggled with weight my whole life. I was born 10lb 10oz. And for all you mom's that under stand this They had to put me on baby cereal the day I was born because milk wasn't filling me up. I think my biggest problem is being overweight has always been a normalcy to me. I have never had a point where I haven't been overweight so I think maybe the idea may be a little frightening.

    USERNAME/REAL NAME: Chubba/Geri

    AGE: 39 yrs & 364 days (yep, I’m holding on as long as possible)

    BIRTHDAY: 09/24/1963

    MARITAL STATUS: Married 3 years

    SPOUSE’S NAME: Dean

    CHILDREN/AGES: Will 2 years, Tony 4 months

    HOBBIES/INTERESTS: Eating (hee, hee), Scrap booking (way behind, will catch up when the kids get older), cross-stitching, reading, walking, bicycling (recent…haven’t really gone since I was a teen)

    PETS: none

    TOP WEIGHT: 256.5

    CURRENT WEIGHT: 227

    GOAL WEIGHT: 175

    HEIGHT: 5’ 9”

    EYE COLOR: Brown

    HAIR COLOR: Bottled medium golden brown. Started getting gray hair when I was 18. I couldn’t even tell you what my real color is anymore!!

    OCCUPATION: Currently the supervisor of a cash management department … soon to be unemployed because the company is closing. I’m looking at it as my opportunity to work part-time while my kids are young so I can spend some time with them.

    GEOGRAPHIC LOCATION: Wisconsin, by-da-lake-der-hey

    How long have you been in TOPS: 1 ˝ years

    Do you now or have you ever held a position in TOPS? Currently co-leader

    What has TOPS done for you? I need to have the weekly weigh-in to see the progress of my weight losses. It’s also the camaraderie – especially when I have gains. 4 of my dearest friends are members of the same chapter so we really support each other.

    What has this board done for you. First posting, but you all seem nice!!

    What do you do to keep yourself motivated? I have 4 other long-time friends in TOPS. We email our food journals daily which helps keep us honest. When I start coming up with too many excuses for not exercising/eating right, they have no problem telling me to knock it off and get back on track.

    WHAT IS YOUR BIGGEST PROBLEM IN WEIGHT LOSS: Keeping it off! I have lost weight through ww twice in my life. The first time, I went back to my old ways and gained it all back. The second time, I kept it off for 2 years until I got pregnant with my first son. I used my pregnancy as an excuse to eat whatever I wanted, whenever I wanted it and to quit exercising. Once I joined TOPS I lost 35 pounds. Then I got pregnant again, and just like the first time, I didn’t do what I should have done. After having Tony I weighed in 1 pound heavier than my first TOPS recorded weight. That irritated me enough to get back on track. Since then I’ve lost 12.5 pounds.

    WHAT IS DIFFERENT THIS TIME THAT WILL MAKE YOU SUCCESSFUL: I’m hoping the third time’s the charm! It worked with smoking – I quit twice before the final time and it’s been 4 years!!

    ANYTHING ELSE YOU WOULD LIKE PEOPLE TO KNOW ABOUT YOU? I put my kids and husband first. I’m working hard not to feel guilty about leaving them for my weekly meetings and to go biking once a week with a friend (I’ve gone 2 weeks in a row. Mind you, I haven’t really ridden a bike much since I was a teen. We went 11 miles the first ride and 19 miles the second ride. We’ll keep it up ‘til the snow flies or it gets too cold out.
