Hi Im 35 from Nassau County New York.. I had gained 50 lbs in the past year because I am an emotional eater & well I was in an unhappy relationship that I am now out of I am 5'4 210 lbs and would love to be back to at least 150 again or even less.. the best way I know that gives pretty good results in a short amount of time and you can eat as much as you want would be low carbing & at 1 time did pretty good.. anyway
I am looking to make friends in the area like myself wanting to lose weight & hopefully become good friends & share our struggles with weight loss as well as the good parts of it too..it would be great to haev someone to motivate each other..

I also wouldnt mind meeting penpals online to have for motivation & make good friends..

Hope to hear from you all

Hi Libby- just came across your thread. Im on the weight loss wagon as well. Ive been working out for about 6 months now. I joined Curves and for the first 5 months I went 6 times a week. I never missed, I watched what I ate and stayed motivated fairly easily. Once a month I would weigh and measure in. I was loosing inches like crazy and by the 5th month I had lost nearly 30 body inches and not a single pound. I felt myself started to get depressed and loose motivation. I have been working so hard, my clothes are starting to hang on me, half my shirts I cant even wear anymore cuz they look so silly. And yet I still hadnt lost any pounds. I found this site a few months ago but didnt really utilize it. I came back for support when I started to get depressed, I didnt want to let 5 months go to waste. So here I am, seeking support and trying to lend mine. I made the decision not to get on the scale again for a while. Im keeping up with my workout, though I changed them up a bit and now I am going to Curves 3 times a week and either walking or doing pilates the other days, I m drinking my water every day and have vowed not to get on the scale for a couple months. I do plan to measure my inches though. So theres my story, lets be buddies. Ill check in tomorrow!
