Hello All, 46, Pre meno, sleep deprived & overweight. Looking for a place to begin to put myself first for a change. Mother of two wonderful boys and married 15 years. I've tried WW, Jenny Craig, Nutri System, Atkins, South Beach, Cleanses etc.... Over the years I've medicated with food during stressful points in my life. I'm down to one pair of pants that fit, buying workout clothes in XL when in my mind I still think I should be a medium. Long story short..... Enough is enough and it's time to start AND FINISH my last weightloss journey to a healthier life. I need a partner or partners to go through my journey with me. I need & want to lose 50 lbs. Gone are the days of the two week diet to drop the weight. Time to put my big girl pants on and take a hard look in the mirror and begin my journey. Holla if your in the same boat.

Welcome! You will find tons of support and buddies on this board. Make sure you search the challenge board. There is a challenge for everyone on there. If you don't see one you like, start one of your own. It's a lot of fun and really keeps you accountable.

Thank you all for your words of encouragement. I'm spending today surfing around in different parts of 3 Fat Chicks site to come up with a new game plan. Atkens diet seems to be the diet I have the most success with. The first two weeks I'm crabby but after that I even out.

Well i am very new to the community but after checking out google i see your site was the best! I have struggled with weight since my early 40's but I seem to be winning the battle now.
