So I've never actually joined a forum before but my pregnant friend is on a pregnancy forum and loves the support and advice she gets so I thought I'd try it out! To tell you about myself I had my incredible son five years ago and still blame the pregnancy for the weight I've been carrying ever since I am currently at 191 and my goal is 130. Of course I've tried diets in the past but I suck at sticking with anything so none lasted, but now I want to enjoy life like I use to so I'm gung ho to stick to eating sensibly and exercising regularly because that honestly is the way to do it, I wish there was the magic pill that dissolved fat but sadly there is not! I have a very important wedding I will be attending in January and would LOVE to wear a form fitting dress and show off my new self. So in 8 months I would like to lose 60 lbs! Any suggestions or motivation is greatly needed!

I am also trying to lose weight and am in need of support. New to forums too, glad to hear I'm not the only one. I really think the friendly encouragement will help. I have tried and failed many times and had thought I had given up but am trying again. Tomorrow AM I WILL change my life. Hope to keep in touch with others on the same path.

Good luck!
