    Hi. My name is Tracie, and I just joined a few minutes ago. Several years ago I lost 120 pounds, most of which I have regained. I saw some 'skinny' pics of myself today, and became disgusted with what has happened. I am watching a program about genetics and obesity. They say genetics contributes about 40%. The problem I have with that is that I did it before, I can do it again. I am just looking for some buddies this time. I would LOVE to get back into all the old clothes in my closet.

    AAAaaaaaahhh!! I just watched that too...on TLC? Supposedly we are supposed to be designed this way because our ancestors needed to to survive? Well, I do live in a cold climate, but I can put extra clothes on!! UGH. It IS an uphill battle, no?

    If you've already done it once, you know that you can do it again. Work hard and you'll get there. I wish you the best of luck.

    Tracie!
    I just found this forum last month and it has really helped me stay on track.
    You may find the challenges a great way to help you stay motivated.
    Getting in shape is hard work but it is so worth it.
    Good luck!
