Although I have been needing to lose weight for the longest time. I am really trying to get myself motivated.


I am a new bride and mom of a wonderful 17 month baby boy. I would like to say that all of my weight was gained in a 9month period the truth is that I have always packed around extra pounds. I am 27 years old and have been over 200lbs since I was 18, I am now 250 and am feeling less and less engergetic everyday. I watch the Biggest Loser and tell myself "tomorrow is the day"

I have tried to get some friends and family around me to workout with me, however they are never serious and usually become unmotivated after a few weeks.

I am really looking forward to talking with individuals who can kick my *** into gear on those days that are the roughest. I really look forward to being invloved in this forum.

you have come to the right place. What sort of plan have you laid out for loosing your weight? I find that checking in here everyday is a big motivator. Be sure to take a look around the site. Good luck & keep posting

Well about five years ago I went on the Atkins, I was on it for about 3-4 months and I lost 40 lbs

I am a carb-o-holic (especially pasta) so really I am just getting myself in the habit of eating 1-2 meals that are salads and cutting back on alot of the startchy carbs (the enriched flour)

I will be adjusting as I go. I dont want to do something that it unrealistic for me at this time.

Have you taken a look at the low carb forum - you may want to check in over there. I look forward to seeing you around.
