Hey everyone,

Just wanted to introduce myself! Ever since I started dating the love of my life almost 2 years ago, I haven't been excercising and have put on around 20 pounds. (He's put on weight, too) We just recently moved from a temperate to a hot climate, and I can't enjoy the perfect weather beacuse my shorts don't fit and I look/feel ridiculous in a swimsuit. I'm also unemployed at the moment, so I have less distractions and more sitting around going on.

So, as of today, I've quit drinking and am setting out to loose the same 15-20 pounds I've been taking off and putting on for a decade.

Best of luck to everyone!!

Hi SDBlondie ...

Newbie here too. with your weight loss plan!

Hiya SDBlondie, and welcome!

You might want to check out the "Featherweights" forum. Since you don't have as much weight to lose as some of the others on the forum, that'll provide you with a group who understand EXACTLY what its like to struggle to lose even half a pound since you're so close to goal!

Otherwise, look around, keep posting, and get comfortable. This is a great place to get the support you're looking for!
