Hello! I'm a newbie on this board, but I hope to be familiar to everyone very soon. I subscribed to WW Online and for about four weeks...then my birthday came around. So much for the will power I was sure I had. Since then it's been downhill and I'm determined to stop my descent into cheesecakes and Mr. Goodbars! I'm 244 #s and my height is 5'3". My goal weight is 135. It's clear that I have some way (or weigh ) to go. I hope that I can get the support I need from these message boards and the WW message boards. Anyway, it's great to say hello!

You are welcome to post to our 250 and Beyond thread, even though you're a little on the light side. At the moment we don't seem to have a thread specifically for folks already below 250. Perhaps you should start one and if there's enough interest it will grow like crazy. I know I'd look forward to being able to "graduate" once I get below 250.

Hey! I am newbie here too. I have been coming to 3FC for a while now but never found the message boards. I am so glad that I found this place. I am Alana Jo and I am 21 years old. I am married, in college, and have a nine month old son. I am currently at 264.3 lbs. I started out at close to 290 and I am not proud of that at all. But I am extremley pleased with my success so far. I have been doing WW for 9 weeks now. I have lost 28.5 lbs. That was my 10%. I use to go to the WW meetings, but I cant afford them now, so I wiegh at home on my digital scales. I am having lots of luck with it. I have definately had a struggle. When I met Michael I was down to 200lbs. We dated 6 months and got married. At our wedding I was up to 230. I gained 30 lbs in 6 months. I guess that is what love will do to you. After we were married I gained up to 245 and found out I was preggers in Dec of 2001. With my pregnancy I gained up to 285 lbs. The day after I had Bailey I was down to 255 lbs. I was so happy. Then with PPD I gained back up to about 285, I not exactly sure how high it went. I was too depressed to get on the scales. Now.. I am back down to 264 and I want to be at 180 lbs. I am 5'8 and have a large frame. At 180 I could wear size 10 jeans. When I met Michael I was wearing a size 14. I just want to be able to get into my 18s now. I was up to a size 26. That is when reality hit me that something had to change. Now I am in a 22. I have a long way to go and I would love to buddy up with you and help each other out. Please Please email me. My email address is [email protected]. I wish you the best of luck in loosing the wieght that you want to loose. I will be praying for you
