Hey there,

I've been visiting this board for a while now, just reading the posts and replies. Everyone seems so nice, and so eager to help. I really need the emotional support of someone who really knows what I'm going through. My hubby is great, but he's a forever thin man (good genetics I guess). I'm actually closer to 120 over my ideal weight and with dangerously high blood pressure and rising cholesterol, I can't justify the yo-yoing anymore. I have to get serious and get rid of the weight forever! I've lost 20lbs myself, following what info I found on the internet and in the front of some weight watchers books. Any help you could give would be greatly appreciated, and I too will be there for you.

Thanks a bunch everyone,

Critter

Wow...

Thanks for the prompt repies. I'm really excited about the road that's ahead of me. It's also good to know there's more WWer's out there. I may have some questions in the future.

Hope you all have a bright sun-shiny day...
