Let's do a roll call and see who's with us..


Tell us a brief introduction about yourself... or if you're super busy, a 'Hi I'm here' will do fine :)


And...


Did you

I'm here, too!

I live in Baltimore MD, and am a grants administrator at a medical school. I have a non-husband (sweet boyfriend of twelve years), two cats and no children.

Sarah, I just barely moved from Utah to Colorado. I am living with in-laws, and trying to go back to my diet after going on a mini vacation right before the move with my in-laws(who love buffets). I am also trying to find a job after just graduating college, and setting up an exercise routine. Sigh to much to do....
I have a pair of capris that are my favorite. I got rid of the rest because I didn't like them and wouldn't wear them anyway. And I don't fit in any of my shorts from last summer anymore.

I'm Laura (33) and currently a SAHM, but plan to return to teaching next fall. I live in La Maddalena, Italy. My family and I will be moving to Virginia Beach in July. I started my journey on Dec. 14 at 267 lbs. I've been counting calories and exercising religiously ever since. I'm down 45.5 lbs. to 221.5 as of today and feel fabulous!

I'm having to buy all new clothes for summer - and I'm happy with that. I just got an Old Navy order in and have to return the size 20 shorts because they are too big! So far, I don't have a favorite.

Hi! I'm here. Or should I say, I'm back? I haven't actually been here for several months now. But I had a wake-up moment yesterday that told me "GET BACK ON YOUR FRIGGIN'DIET!". I haven't been watching what I have been eating ever since I stopped posting here, and yesterday I started to have chest pains again. So, I told my hubby that I am laying off the junk food and he told me to go back to WeightWatchers, cause he knows that is what works for me more often than not. I am a very blessed woman to have a husband who is very understanding and supportive like him. Anyhow, enough rambling, this is supposed to be a roll call--right? So- I am a 31-yr. old woman, married, no kids (can't have any of my own, which is fine by me. That just means I can spoil my nieces and nephews til its time to hand them back to mommy and daddy :) ) And I am once again trying to lose all the extra pounds that have found their way to my rear end(as well as every other body part!) My goal weight is around 140 pounds. Currently, I weigh in at around 355. Yikes!! That hurts to type onto the page. But, I gotta start somewhere, right? Good luck everyone. I'm kind of a quiet person, so I wind up lurking more than I post, but I'll be as supportive as I know how. Good luck, and get going.

Hello ladies,

I'm ANN a 35 year old SAHM of two boys. I am 5'7" and started out at 317, I am now at 305 and hope to get down to 190 sometime next year.

I count calories through another website that tallies them up for you, I try to stay around 1400 for now, then I try to do some form of exercise daily (often not conventional exercise, like some days it is push mowing our lawn or something that is also productive). I do my best to drink 8 glasses of water daily and try to never eat after 7PM.

I was put on high blood pressure meds 2 weeks ago and I wasn't very happy about it, I hope that once I get healthier I can ditch the meds!

It is nice to see so many new people on the board! Welcome everyone!!

As far as summer clothes, I live in TX so we have NO winter to speak of, so my summer clothes are ready year round. My favorite outfit would be my newest denim capris (they are getting big, Yay)and a red & white gingham camp shirt with my white sandals. Of course I have to be matchy-matchy and have my jewelry and hair accesories match too. LOL.

ANN
