Default Newbie/20 year class reunion
Hi everyone,I'm glad to be here.My class reunion is a year away from now and I need to lose 80 pounds.I'm 200 pounds .I gained this weight very fast.I know this is alot to lose in a year and would be very happy to lose 60.(I'm only 5'1}In addition,I need to boost my self-esteem .I'm tired of running the other way when I see people that knew me when I was small.
It is good to have a wonderful support group here like this.Now that I've finally posted it means I'm ready to do this!!

That sounds like a realistic goal. I know how much it sucks to run into people you knew before when you know they're thinking 'wow she got so big'. It's made me avoid a lot of social experiences unfortuantely. I am new as well so welcome and best of luck to us both!

You can totally do this! My renunion was my motivation to lose weight at first as well. I lost 22 pounds in time to look pretty good for my ten-year. Do you have a weight-loss plan in mind?
