Another new one
I originally did this wrong and posted this as a reply instead of a new thread. Sorry!
Name: Valerie
Age: 26
Birthday: 5/4/75
Location: Mechanicsburg, PA
Marital Status: getting married 6/22/02!
Spouse: fiance, Frank
Children: None
Pets: Siamese cat, Casey
Height: 5'5"
Weight: Highest 184lbs, Current around 163 lbs. (I haven't been on a scale since around September so I am just estimating), Wedding goal: 155 lbs. Ultimate Goal: 135 lbs. would be nice!
Treat I have the most trouble giving up: chocolate and cheese
Why I believe I'll be successful losing the weight this time:
When I started graduate school in Aug. 97 I weighed 184 and was determined to lose weight. By June 98 I was down to 140 - I did it all on my own with eating healthy and exercising. Slowly over the last 3 1/2 years my weight is creeping up - a few more lbs. every year. I can't get the motivation back. I feel out of controlI get disgusted every time I look in the mirror. I feel overwhelmed with guilt every time I eat something bad or skip exercising for the night. I would like to think support from others would be helpful in keeping me motivated! I feel very alone b/c all of my friends and family members are either average weight or underweight.
It would be nice to hear from other people out there my age who know how I feel!
