Hello! I am new here. I just signed up yesterday, and found how to make a blog. I spilled my guts out on there! Hopefully by sharing my struggles, with anyone, will help make me more accountable for my actions and give me the motivation to really get my whole life back into shape. I'm still not quite sure how to use the site. But hopefully there is a link on my page for you to start reading it with me. Feel free to add me as a friend. I could really use the support.

I am currently at my highest weight. 274. I am a 29 year old unemployed mother of 2. My goal weight is 145. Hopefully by my 30th birthday this year I can be near the 200 mark. My new years resolution for this year is Love, Learn, Travel. Love myself, Learn to live. Hopefully this 'journey' will bring me places.

Kdee Bug, welcome, glad to have you join us. Great Name!

I just signed up for this site over the weekend and browsed around a little bit.. and then started the IP diet using alternatives this Monday. I had been perusing this site for a while. I am at my highest weight 293 and I am 26 years old. I did WW for about five months once and lost 35 pounds and before I knew it i had gained that back plus double.

Goodluck to you.. i'm sure I will see you around the site!!

Hi Kdee Bug,you're my first person to comment on, on this website. I registered a while ago but haven't posted yet. You can do it. The biggest thing is never, ever give up. Learn to see which foods are helping your body and mood and learn which foods irritate your body. I am much more in tune with my body and eating than I use to be. Start small and reduce portions by just 10%. You've heard it before but you put it on over years, so it won't come off overnight. Just never give up.

Hi Mrsmurphy, I'm 28, almost 29. I lost great on WW until I got pregnant. I was in such pain and I don't want to go into it, but I gained back everything I lost on WW. It wouldn't have happened had I not gotten preg. I tried WW in the last couple years but it just would not work for me post-pregnancy. So I am just watching what I eat and am off to exercise right now actually! Good luck gals.

Thanks everyone! Already feeling the love The avatar option was when I was setting up my profile. Hopefully I can figure out how to add some real pictures, and use the little bar to show my weight and all that fun stuff. It's so awesome watching all these other people progress and reading about how they are doing it.

Getting to know the site just a bit more and realized I must of signed up in 2010! I guess I did come back and see stories, I mostly enjoy before and after pictures! They are all inspirations to me. Just thought I'd comment and correct myself on the sign up date. Although a couple days ago was the day that I decided I am going to really start committing myself to this site, and myself. Good luck to everyone else. I look forward to having real time motivations and inspirations <3
