Newbie from NYC <waving hello>

  • Good Morning,

    I decided that today's the day to make a change!!!
    I have wanted to do this for so long, and for some reason, I couldn't.
    I'm 36, newly engaged, and getting married in a little under a year. I do not want to look this way, walking down the aisle. I know I can do it...I can!!!
    I have been successful in the past, but, the weight always creeps back up on me.
    I am so glad that I found this site. I need motivation....I need encouragement.

    Hoping to meet some friends......

    Have a great day!!!
  • Welcome! Welcome! Welcome!!

    Best of luck on your weight loss journey.

  • I'm also 36 with 38 pounds to go.I'm gonna do it & I know you can too!
    It won't be easy~nothing ever is when it's worth doing,but every pound & every inch makes a HUGE difference!
    Good luck!
