Talking Coming out..

Hi everyone I have been a lurker for a while now, but decided to come out of hiding...

I have been overweight most of my adult life, but back in 2002 I decided to take control over my weight and dropped 54lbs in 4 months. I was on Suzanne Somers program called Somersizing. It's all about food combining.

I was a stay @ home mom at the time, so that made it easier for me. Upon returning back to work, I started eating lunch out with the girls so that made it difficult cause I had no will power to watch what I ate. I am now a sta @ home mom again and have been for the past 4 years, but it is harder for me this time.

I have gained all of that back and then some. I am tired of being overweight so I decided to join you guys on my journey. I am hoping to make some new friends while doing so. I need all the support I can get. I am looking forward to getting to know you all.

Heya jellious, it's really important that you do this for your self confidence! At least being a stay at home mom gives you access to the forum when you do need that support. Best of luck and hope to see you around the board cute doggy by the way!
