Hi Everyone,
I thought I would take the time and introduce myself to all of you. My name is Danielle I am 20 years old and I am overweight. As of the other day I was at 268.5 pounds. I am a full time college student majoring in Early Childhood Education. I work at a In Home Large Family Day Care with 10 children (youngest 5 months/ oldest 4) I work there full time and at Night I am a full time nanny for a 5 month old boy. I love working with children. but Towards the end of the day I am so tired from running around with them. I need to lose weight. I have been trying too. I lost about 20 pounds but I started to get really bad heartburn (I was doing the South Beach/Atkins) I have started walking at night with my boss and I have also been doing BeachBody. I want to lose as much weight as possible before Christmas 2004. My final goal is to be around 135 pounds. I have such a long life ahead of me that I do not want to be FAT anymore. I hate the way I look and I hate the way that people look at me. SO i need you guys to help me when I need you.

(((((Danielle))))), welcome!
Welcome! I'm glad you decided to post here, Danielle. I think that you will find support here. We are all trying to lose weight and become healthier. I agree with what Mary said about losing weight. It is also important to lose weight in a healthy way so that it stays off once it's gone. I'm so glad you decided to join us!

Just by spending a little about of time reading posts in here I can tell that I have wonderful support from you gals.
I am getting ready for my vacation!!! I am going back to Wisconsin to see my family and I am also in a wedding. I am on vacation for 15 DAYS!!!!!!!!!!!! I leave Saturday morning and I have so much to do and I haven't done anything yet. I guess I should get off my butt and do some stuff around the house.
Thanks again for the great support. Keep up the great job girls!
Love,
Danielle
