Hi everyone! My name is Rebekah. I weighed 251 up until not quite 6 months ago. I had an epiphany moment about then, and decided I couldn't live another day unhappy with myself and my body. I am now in the middle of my journey, 60 pounds down with 25 more to go. I am pumped and proud and ready to tackle my last mile. I got a little cocky during the holidays, but the gain was nothing to what I have managed to gain in previous years. (4 compared to 12+) I am so excited to meet you all, I have been on boards in the past and enjoyed my time there, but today feels like a fresh start and this site looks like a fun and friendly place to be. Yay!

Hi Rebekah!



Congratulations! Losing 60 pounds is a huge accomplishment. And now that you're back into the swing of things (the holidays were a little bit upward for me, too so I understand) those other 25 should be off of you in no time.

Post wherever you're comfortable & keep us all updated. Best of success!

Hey Rebekah!

on your 60 lbs lost...what a major accomplishment!

We have all kinds of forums here you might want to settle into...by age range, by eating plan, or by amount you're losing. Even though you're a bit lower than 100 lbs, you might want to check out the 100 lb club...it's a wonderful, supportive board for those on their way to losing or who have lost 100 lbs or so. I really enjoy the conversations over there.

We have lots of miscellaneous clubs, challenges, etc also. So look around, find a spot, settle in, and keep going.

Can't wait to get to know you better!
