I'm a 29yr old married mom with over 100lb to lose. I would like to have someone who has a similar profile to chat with. I havn't really even started my "diet" yet. Today may finally be the day. I can't seem to get going. I have 3 daughters (8/2/1) and 2 step daughters (8/7) I sometimes get overwhelmed and eat to feel better. Maybe that's just an excuse. I don't know. I guess I need to have someone to chat with and sort things out. If you'd like to chat, send me a line. Andi

I emailed you since this was my first day and I'm not registered user yet. (I will be when I figure out how and learn my way around.) I've been in your boat and have drifted out to sea so far I can barely see the shoreline. But I've declared war on obesity and dropped anchor, now I'm pulling myself back in with raw determination and the word NO. I stared with 166lbs to lose and now 3 weeks later I've lost 26. Best of luck to you. You can do it!!!!!!!

I also am 29 years old. I have an 8 year old son and a 15 year old step daughter. My weight loss goal is 76 pounds and I have lost 29.2 so far. I am going to Weight Watchers, drinking lots of water and thanks to my step daughter, I am exercising everyday. She is my exercise buddy. We do Richard Simmonds videos and Cindy Crawford. It is fun to try different ones. I am not an exercise type person, but I can see such an improvement already that I know I have to keep at it. I keep it in my head that I have to do it. I will end up dying of a stroke like my granny if I don't. I know in my heart I will make it to my goal. And you can do it too. It takes motivation, determination, and support. Good Luck.
