Hello.

[JustMe28]

Hello. I'm new here and just wanted to introduce myself. My name is Nicole and I'm 28 years old. I've been married for 10 years and we have 2 children. My friend told me about this board and told me it is a great place to go when you are trying to lose weight. I weigh 229 lbs. and want to lose down to 165 lbs. I look forward to getting to know everyone. :wave: P.S. I was told to ask where I can get my member clippee?

WELCOME JUSTME28!! WOW You're a BABY!! :) But we do have some other things in common besides you being 7 years younger than me!!!! :) I started at 236 on April 1st- and with the support of WISH I'm down 38 pounds!!! And believe me I've started and stopped so many times since my youngest was born 4 years ago and this is the first time it's STUCK!! Also I've been married 10 years too!!! I'm up on you by one child- that must explain the 7 extra pounds I had on you at the start of this weight loss journey :) If you have any trouble hooking up your member clippie I'm sure one of the moderators can fix it for you- I had to have them go in and fix things up when I started- the instructions are great and hopefully you'll have better luck navigating it than I did- I'm just not techie inclined.

You can start a journal at the WISH journal section- it's really easy and encourages me as I make it to my first major goal of 196. And there's so many great big losers here that you just can't keep from catching the losing bug. Welcome and let's chant ONWARDS and DOWNWARDS!!! You'll be in Onederland before you know it- (I just got here -any number under 200- last week!!) You can do it!!!
