Smile Newbie looking for some buddies!!

Hello All,
My name is Mish and I started to take control of my life by getting back into shape this year. The first step was admitting that I needed help and the second is actually taking action and doing something about my problem. Finding this site and viewing all the wondeful achievements only served to let me know I am not alone in my plight towards a healthier lifestyle.

I'm 30 years old and weigh a whopping 362 pounds. I live in Connecticut and I'm looking for some buddies to kind of help me along the process as motivators and supporters while I go on this journey. My target weight is 155by June 2007 so that I can compete in the USMC Mud Run in California with my brother as well as start a family with my husband and to do either of them I must be get back into decent shape.

Anyone that can share what they have done to lose weight or what they're currently doing would be wonderful and helpful to me. Support will be extended both ways, me for you and you for me

All replies are welcome and I look forward to hearing from you.

Thanks.

Mish aka "Jonquils"

Morning,

I am 29 trying to get from 300ish to 180. I am hoping to get down at least 50 lbs by this Aug, but I am hoping to aim to a lot more.

Feel free to yahoo or PM. I am always looking for someone to trade thoughts with regarding weight loss.

Good luck & take care - E

Hi Erin and Mish! Have you chosen a food plan or are you looking for inspiration yet? Either way 3fc can help.

As for the run in California .... there are runners' threads in the exercise section. You'll like them.
