I'm a newbie too -

I'm a married , full time working Mother of 2 - one is in heaven - passed away 3 years ago and we have an 11 year old.

I've gained SO much weight since our son passed away . I need to lose about 125 lbs !

I hope this is the place to come for support and ideas. I've tried everything else..

Hi Chrissi,

Welcome! I've only been here a few days, but I think you've found the right place. It sounds like you've had a rough few years. I'm so sorry to hear about your son! I can't even imagine what you've been going through! I'm sure you will get plenty of support on this board. This is a great bunch of people.

Welcome aboard!

Linda

Welcome Chrissi! You've definitely found the right place for support. We get an instigator or two occasionally, but usually if you ignore him he (or she) goes away. My sincerest sympathies for your loss. I can't imagine.


Welcome!

Thank you for the welcome ..

I've not chosen a plan - I've tried so many and they just don't work for me. I see you do weight watchers - I tried that -went to a meeting or 2 but everyone was skinny - and so were the people working there. Very VERY intimidating!

Which would you suggest for a busy lifestyle?
