Newbie Here

  • Hi Everyone!
    Just joined and am stopping here to say hi first. A little about me...

    My name is Lilli and I live in S. Florida. I am married - will be 21 years on Friday and my baby (son) is turning 20 tomorrow! We have 2 dogs that think they are children too. As for me - I'll be 43 next month and need to lose weight! I am currently at 200 and hope to get down to 140 - it's a long way off. I am what some may call me an emotional eater - but I'm not fussy about what emotion - could be happy or sad - doesn't matter - I'll eat! LOL.

    Oh well, this is me! Looking forward to getting to know you all.

    Blessings,
    Lilli

    Hi there! My name is Tracie...I will be 25 next week. I am getting married in October. I live in small town in Saskatchewan. I don't have any kids yet, but we have a cat and 2 dogs who are spoiled rotten and might as well be children. I am an elementary school teacher.

    I have tried many different systems in an effort to lose weight and have now gone back to Weight Watchers. As a New Year's Resolution I made a goal to lose weight and amazing enough I have stuck to it. From January to May I lost 30lbs and then got stuck, so I decided to join WW again, since rejoining I have lost another 26.6lbs.My goal is to reach 140lbs, I have another 33.4 to go.

    What are you doing to lose weight? Have you set any mini-goals? What do you do for activity?

    I look forward to hearing from you...

  • Hi Lil Welcome, I 2 live in S. Florida, I'm 47, married for 18 years w/ 2 daughters, three dogs and one bird. I also am an emotional eater and need to lose 50 lbs. I have started WW 8/1/05 and have lost 3 lbs. I eat when something upsets me and I am trying to do other things instead of eating. the WW points system is great. What are you trying?
