Smile Hello

Hi all, just found this web site and it seems great. Another tool for motivation, that is what I need. I really like being able to post questions out there and be able to read other stories for engouragement.

Well here goes, my name is Tami. I am 31 live in the sunny state of Fl and have been battling weight issues my whole life. I have been on just about every diet and program you can imagine. in 03 I lost 70 pounds and felt great.. then I met my husband and love just ook over from there. I did not follow anything that I had to do to lose the weight and was going to the gym everyday to lose the weight, but I signed up for school at night and was working full time. So I quit the gym when I was going 7 days a week. Well I went up to 230 lost 30 to get married on 7/23/05 and then stopped taking B/C and all my problems began. Started a new job gained 30 pounds so fast I couldn't belive it. Then foubnd out that I have PCOS and have been dealign with that. I have been trying to lose weight since Feb 07.. but not trying really hard.. just kept finding an excuse to eat what ever I wanted and say oh I will just start tomorrow well that stopped on 06/01/07 when I signed up for the gym and then followed somewhat of a diet, but didn't work for me. My husband and I started the SBD on 07/02/07 and have been doing great. I have lost weight and have been feeling great. I even signed up with a personal trainer at the gym and wow what a workout. I also do 1 hr of cardio 5-6 times a week.

I can't wait to get down to 135 I don't even remember when I was that weight maybe in 6 grade or something. When I met my husband in 04/2003 I was around 160/170 so it would be great to get down to 135 and look all hot and sexy!! I am hoping to accomplish this is less than a year and am working hard at it.

I hope to talk to you all soon.

Tami
