Hi Barb and Jen

Great to get a contact. I'm sure this support will help us lose our weight. Maybe we should introduce ourselves....I was 247lbs(although we use kgs over here,....thats 112kg aboutish). I lost 102lbs (got to 66kgs) but unfortuneatly found 41lbs again. I have started the diet once again and this time I will make it and stay there. I am nearly 40 years young, married 18 years and have 2 boys aged 16 and 14. They probably get sick to death of me always dieting. I have tried Weight Watchers, Jenny Craig, Sureslim and many meal replacements, shakes.etc. I think you just have to find what fits into your lifestyle. I work full time so find little time to prepare healthy meals. Can you relate? I hate the exercise thing but know that I should do it ...I know it helps. Please let me know of your stories and maybe we could post our weights say every Monday (hopefully our loses) so we can help each other...what do you think??..leeny

Hi guys
Sorry it has taken me a while to get back to you...I hope you haven't given up the weight loss game or are you shrinking away. This week I have lost 1.5kg(which is just over 3lbs i think in your language).
I have been super good on the diet with the food and the exercise going great. I have been walking with a neighbour and really watching the kilojoules. I really need to focus this week because I am having a "tummy tuck"the next week to chop off all the excess ugly skin from my weight loss. I still have a ways to go but removing this will make me feel great on the outside as well as the inside.
Anyhows, hoping you are all well and still fighting "the battle".Talk to you soon
Leeny
