Hi everyone, I just stumbled on this sight yesterday and I thought I'd give it a try. I'm a 23 year old nursing student thats been overweight ALL my life. I also have one of thoes familes that lets you know over and over again that you've gained weight and need to loose a "few" pounds, which doesnt help at all! But this time I need a change for real, I'm engaged and I'm going to get married in March of 2007 so I want to start loosing as soon as possible and do it slowly, the healthy way, instead of going on a crash diet which usually doesnt last. I refuse to be 190 lbs in my wedding photos!! I'm doing this for mostly myself and for my fiance. Since I met him I let my self go and gained 30 lbs, so I want him to marry the girl he met, not whatever it is that I am now!! So if anyone is interested in being my buddy I would love the company!!!
