Smile Newbie here
Hi, I'm Jenn. I found this website by accident but glad I did.

I am 36 and need to lose 50 lbs. I have been overweight since puberty and have never been thin. I have been a yo yo dieter for 25+ years and have been every weight between 145-237. I have three kids, all c-sections, and had a hysterectomy last year. I have always had hormone issues which has made weight loss so difficult. I am just tired of being fat. I have tried so many plans, some have worked, some have not, but with my health issues, the weight always comes back on. I need to find something I can do forever and can stick with. I have a job where I am on my feet all day and have three children with Autism, so I'm tired a lot and being overweight just makes me feel crappier, both physically and mentally.

Glad to have found this community. Some of these posts have already had me laughing because I can relate SO well!

Welcome!
I found this site completely by accident too, just a few hours ago.
Good luck on your mission to lose weight!


P.S. I actually have Aspergers, which is just like Autism but not as bad. :3

My oldest is my highest functioning, and he has Asperger's, with many Autistic traits.

Good to "meet" you. Good luck to you also! Let's do this!
