Hi! I am new to this Board. I am at a point in my life where I really want to commit to change and need some emotional support.

Welcome Kathy! I know how you feel about the 200 mark. The prospect of maintaining at 199 for the rest of my life really sounds pretty good to me. (I'm at 237, down from 252, but up from 227 in early October. Argh.) Good to have you with us! Annie

LOL! I know what you mean about STILL looking pregnant! Yikes! I had a 5 year old ask me that last Spring. I took a blow to my ego on that one.


I have done in the past WW with good success, Nutrisytem with little success, and South Beach with LOTS of success. I got sidetracked with it around Easter and never regained my adherence to it. So this time I am doing primarily SBD (it has mostly what I eat anyway) and LOTS of exercise. Once I get my butt to the Y I actually enjoy working out and I feel so much better. I just bought some exercise bands on the recommendation of a trainer to do resistance training at home. I am 37 and I really want to get to a healthy BMI more than anything. I hate the term "morbidly obese" unfortunately it's accurate because if I continue at this rate my weight will cause a premature death for me and I don't want

Hi Kathy.. my Mark is a few days younger than Jonathan.. and to this day some people think I'm pregnant (I have a stomach.. the ONLY thing I got from my mom). The weird thing is, when I was pregnant, everybody just thought I was just fat.
