Hello there anyone who is reading this. I am new to this whole messgae board thing, but I figured I would give it a try. I moved to Denver, CO a little over 4 months ago, and have not met many people yet, so I figured this would be a goo dplace to come and get some motivation. I am also recently married. My new husband and I are trying everything we can not to gain the Newlywed 9 (which would be more like 19 for me :) ) I have about 130 pounds to loose- and I really want to be in shape before we try to get pregnant, also for my health. We have been on program (weight watchers- no meetings) and working out for about 2 weeks and I have lost about 7 pounds. Which really motivates me. I have also made a commitment at work to run/jog in race for the Cure 5K in October. I don't want to let myself downt this time- I did WW in 2003 and lost 40 lbs- and gained back 70. Basically thats all- I just wanted to intorduce myself. Hope everyone has a fabulous Monday!!

Hello and welcome!!!

Congrats of the 7 pound weight loss!!!

It struck me funny when I read your post....we actually have SEVERAL things in common. I thought I was reading about myself for a minute LOL. I JUST lost 7 pounds after 2 weeks of WWs (no meetings). I want to lose about 100 pounds. My husband (also trying to lose weight) and I are newlyweds too. AND, I want to drop at least 60 pounds so that we can get ready for a baby. Sounds familiar, huh? Well, I wish you the best of luck....and hopefully I'll see you around!!!

Hello there and welcome to the board. Looks like you're off to a great start. Congratulations for the 7lbs already lost.. WTG!!


And you have a very interesting goal to reach.. I bet that race would be a lot of motivation for you to exercise. Good luck with that.


I'm looking forward to knowing you better. Don't be a stranger and post often :)

Thanks for the welcome. How are you liking Denver? I foudn that when we moved here all I could see around me were healthy, active people and I wanted to gag..LOL But we are tyring to stay committed. My husnad is definatly on the smaller side so he has less to loose. If you need any tips on places to go or things to see let me know- -I have not been here much longer but am happy to offer any Denver advice :)

Welcome to the board.


You will find a great group of supportive ladies here. We each do our own thing, but have the same goals in mind.


Less weight, healthier...I too follow WW, no meetings either.


I look forward to your posts.
