I am new here

  • I noticed that there are a lot of new people introducing themselves. I will too. My name is Laurie and I need to loose some weight - don't we all though?! lol I recently got weighed at the doctor's office and faced the horror that the scale said I was over 200lbs. I near about keeled over. I guess that was my reality check. I have been avoiding looking in mirrors, etc so I would not have to face the truth. Ignorance is bliss so they say.
    Anyhow...I am 36 years old and I am currently a sahm to a 9 1/2 year old dd and an 8 year old ds.
  • Welcome Laurie
    Welcome Laurie!
    I am Pam....34, married, sahm to three loverly little cherubs age 14, 11, and 8. They keep me plenty busy, that's for sure. I have been working at this weight loss thing for quite some time now....but I keep plugging away at it. If I can be a support for you, please, just let me know.
    Hugs,

  • Also a newbie....
    Hi everyone!!! I'm Stacy, 35 from Ky. I've been dieting now for 8 days....so nothing major to report yet. I'm on blood pressure meds and I'm really hoping the weight loss will make it so I can stop taking them. Any tips from anyone would be very much appreciated. I've got a long road ahead of me but I'm very determined. I'm going to work hard at getting this weight off.
    Stacy
