newbie here

  • had heard about this site years ago but just stumbled on it today.

    currently weigh 283 according to the charts need to be 160 (personally i think i would look like a stick at that...but any who...) i am not looking for a magic number (although being under 200lbs and/or a size 16 again would be awesome!) no what i am looking for is a state of mind where i can feel good in 50% of what i put on, plus i want to have more energy for my kids!

    so looking for people to to complain with, chat with, be a happy with etc.

    thanks...
  • Yay I get to be the first fat chick to say So glad you found us and know you will find so much support and encouragement!

    I know what you mean about the charts... they say my maximum should be 160 too but that would be way too thin; I would be a beanpole and I am NOT built small.

    Complain, chat and be happy... that's us!!! Although not necessarily in that order, hopefully.
