New here, but not new to fat

  • Hi,

    My name is Susie. I've been overweight for about 14 yrs, but have struggled with my weight since 10. (My wonderful step-mom put me on my first diet.)
    I've been SEVERELY overweight since the birth of my 3rd child.

    I am 36 and live in Dallas, TX.
    I have 4 children (14B, 9B, 4B, and 3G). My husband is never home because he's in IM residency (IOW: I am a poor doctor's wife).
    This year I am staying home, but usually I am a teacher.

    I just started WW meetings and hope that it works.

    I found this site looking for the WW Pumpkin Mousse recipe and it looks like a great place for support
  • hello, im new too! i think this site is a good motivator. im still sort of confused how it all works tho.
