Hey everyone!

My name is amanda. I'm 34, married mom of 2 little crazy ones, and I'm finally ready for a kick in the @ss! I never paid much attention to my weight, until I bought a scale last month. I almost died when I saw 248! I was genuinely shocked. I knew I was a big girl, but that number was nothing near what I was expecting.

So, I joined ww. I've been doing it or about 3.5 weeks and I've dropped close to 12 pounds. My son, whose 11, has lost 4! He's a bit of a chunky butt, and he's doing great also. All he's done has cut out snacks at night. He's loving it.
I started working out, and I've set my mind to this. I already feel better about myself. A bit worked about the 'honeymoon phase' passing, but I think I can do it.

Looking forward to meeting and sharing this with people who understand! This is my first go a this, but hopefully it's my last.

to you!

Shazaam.. You have lost 12 lbs. That is Marvelous!! Good for you and your son losing 4 with YOU at the same time. Ahhhh wonderful family teamwork. That makes it alot more fun (easier for meals too). You could have contests to the 2 of you!

I hope to see more stories posted here. Just keep doing the best you can and welcome again!!

Congratulations on your 12lb loss!!!

Thanks guys!

I meant to say this *isn't* my first go. But this times feels different. Ww has worked for me in the past, so far it's working now. It's sticking that makes it hard. My husband doesn't want me to lose to much, but I've got about 80 to lose. He's supportive, but wants me to stay the wy I am. Tough crap for him!

Welcome and good luck on your journey!!!
