Hello, My name is a Lisa and I am going to begin my weight loss journey 07/13/06…. As I’ve scrolled thru the different post, and forums I find that tears are welling up in my eyes, and for the first time I feel like I am not alone. With each before and after picture I see, I get more and more emotional because, I see how happy you all are, and how much success you have found…. I WANT that!!! I don’t know any of you but draw great inspiration from you. I admire each and every one of you for the changes you have made… It is truly AMAZING!!!
As for me, My struggle w/ weight began after having kids, although I refuse to use that as an excuse, it was completely my fault.. Over the past 4 years I have watched myself Gain so much weight that, I no longer know the person looking back at me in the mirror. Ive tried weight watchers, along with many others and have yet to be able to obtain any substantial weight loss. I have had many friends who have done Atkins and have see the wonders it can do, so I am going to give it my all. I am not looking for a quick fix and relize I have a long rode ahead. However I feel having somewhat of a support group to talk to may just be the key factor for me. I once heard someone say, “Things will remain the same, until the pain of being the same is greater then the pain of change” and that is where I am right now.
With all that said I am starting my diet w/ a current weight of 284, and hope of getting down to 150. Any tips you may have are welcomed …. I
