Good morning,
Apparently I registered here some time ago, but never introduced myself or participated.... gonna change that now!
My name is Kristy. I just turned 40 in September. I've been overweight since I was about 8 or 9 years old, and went on my first diet when I was 10. I started Weight Watchers (for about the fourth or fifth time) in June, and my life is completely changing. I've lost 50 pounds so far (Officially 45.6 ... lost a few before I went to my first meeting).
This time doesn't feel like a "diet." I've had a real change in my thinking... wanting a healthy lifestyle long term... not just a short term plan to get to my goal weight.
I'm headed off to the lake to walk/jog with a friend, but I wanted to take a minute to finally introduce myself here. I'm looking forward to getting to know you guys!
It sounds like your well on your way
