Hi everyone!
This is my first time at this web site and my first time in a forum like this, Hope I am doing this right.
My name is Monique, I am a 40 y/o mother of a 20y/o son (who is awesome) I am 4 years into a second marriage and have gained 50 plus pounds since the big day. I know that turning 40 this past year is not going to make the weight any easier to lose and so that is why I decided I was going to need some help. My husband is overweight also but doesn't seem to care as much as I do about losing it. I need a few good friends to share tips, ideas, recipes, support and encouragement with.
Thank you all in advance.
My current weight is 256 and my goal weight is 175 so I have a long road ahead of me. But I think this time I am going to look at it in terms of short term goals. so 2 pound a week or 6.5 pounds a month I feel is a good rate of weight loss. I have given myself a full year to obtain my goal weight. I am ready to do it right this time.
with your help that is ....
Thank you
Monique
