Hi everyone,
I'm new to this board. I am Theresa. I have been taking part in the ChangeOne Community Challenge, but I think this board will be even more supportive. I am 5'5'' and weighed 255 lbs. on February 1. I lost 7 lbs. as of February 7. I am aiming for 150 by the end of the year and hopefully I will be able to reach 130 at the end of my long journey. If you would like to get to know me, check out my website at http://home.earthlink.net/~buttrflies78/

Warm Wishes,
Theresa

Hey, thanks! I am soooo ready! I am with a great guy who loves me just the way I am! I'm in it for myself! I want to be able to have energy and feel good! I just want to be healthy. I've been doing Weight Watchers and I walk 1 mile everyday! It's just a start, but I want to take it slow and build up so that this transition into a healthy new me will stick.

Lots of love!
Theresa

Hi Theresa, I love the picture of the kitten on the front of your webpage. I have 2 cats. Katy is a maine coon and blue is a rag doll. I also really enjoyed the rest of your webpage. We are moving to Jacksonville, NC this summer. I may have to hit you up with some questions about the schools. Anyway, I am so glad that you decided to join us. It sounds like you have a great start with 7 pounds. Good luck and let us know how we can help and support you. sharla

Thank you everyone! I really appreciate your warmth! I am actually on Weight Watchers, but I do not attend meetings! I cannot afford that! I am using some of the books that I borrowed from a friend. It is great! I also have been walking a mile a day on top of work. If you have any WW advice, throw it this way! I need it!

Thanks!
Theresa

Welcome to the board Theresa. I myself have just re-joined this board. I think it's important to get lots of support which I am sure you will get here.

I am Jen(32), single mom of 2 kids(7 & 4). I have about 130 lbs to lose to get to goal.
