Hey everyone ~

My name is Kimberly and I am 27 years old. Although my birthday is in a couple of weeks,so I guess I should start saying that I am 28. I am married and I live outside of Atlanta, GA. I need to lose about 138lbs to reach my goal weight of 145. I currently weigh 283, which is sad because yesterday I weighed 282! I joined e-diets yesterday as well. I am doing LC and I think that it will work for me. In the past two months I have lost around 23lbs. I am not certain how I actually lost the weight without even trying. I think it may have been a result of my dh re-enlisting in the Army and leaving on 5/28/05. So it must have been a sign of depression that caused me to the lose the weight. But, anywho I am now serious about the weight loss and would really love to have a support group that will help me through it all.

I hope everyone is having a great Friday!

Kimberly

Hi Kimberly welcome to the board. Is your husband gone over seas or is he home now? I think there are support boards for wives with husbands in the Army. Anyway good luck.

Welcome and congratulations on the 23 pounds. (even if you were not trying!!) My husband will be leaving soon for awhile and one of my goals is to lose weight when he is gone. It always helps me deal with him being away if I have projects or goals to work on while he is gone. I just think of how surprised he will be when he returns and sees what I have done. Maybe that can help you as well. good luck. sharla
