My name is Tia and I am 41 years old and live in Orange County, CA.

I currently weigh 237 and my goal weight is 190, I have been on my current diet since last Monday. I have been doing meal replacements for breakfast and lunch on the GNC lean shakes.

In the past I was successful at losing over a 100 pounds on the Atkins diet when I weighed over 300 pounds, put a lot of it back on though.

I have joined this group because I realized that I am not going to get the support that I need at home. This is something that is important to me, not to just lose the weight again but be successful at keeping it off.

Hey,

Congratulations on taking on this journey. You've been able to lose 100+ lbs already, so I have no doubts you'll be able to do it again.

I weigh 235 lbs and my goal weight is 180 lbs. Hope you get the support you need on this forum. I will need it as well, and Im starting with a 21 day challenge of not eating sweets + drinking at least of 1.5 liters of water per day.

Let's see how it goes. Good luck.

Welcome to both of you! Nano, your challenge is very similar to one I am doing. Maybe you'd like to join us here http://www.3fatchicks.com/forum/chic...ood-habit.html for the support and a place to log your progress!

I am 204.0 this morning hoping to one day be 150, unless I reach my peak before then, I don't really know what will end up being ideal

welcome!

Thank you everyone I am very excited. One thing that I was able to keep with me since my last weight loss is that fact that I stopped drinking sodas, and now if I can just stop with the sweets I think I will be able to keep it off. They are always my downfall. Good luck to all of you also, we got this!

I am also in this and it is a great way to have a goal for only 3 weeks, (less than a whole month) and get support through it.
