Hello Amanda i live 90 miles south of seattle and i have over 150 pounds to lose. I am 50 years old presently weigh 367 and i am 6 ft 2 in tall. My kids are all grown up i have twins 24 years old. I have medical problems that help with this weight gain but not all was medical there was also this thing called stress eating. I am looking forward to see my weight go down and keeping it off.

I just wanted to wish you good luck.
I am 35 also but only have half as many children! LOL I have 2 boys 2.5 and 17. I got the best of both worlds right now!! Teens and terrible 2s! They can both be pretty horrible, but are great kids none the less!
I just posted about needing ideas for when you are completely exhausted from waking up with a baby every night. If you need ideas, I can pass them on to you.
And if you have any, can you pass them on to me?

Hi Ladies-

Thanks for the response. It's really nice to hear that people are in my same shoes. This weekend was a bit hard, I was suppose to go to meet one of the counselors over at Bally Fitness, and well I woke up late. I feel a bit guilty, but then again he was a little pushy. I'm soo ready to start, but I can't have someone push me so fast...I'm taking baby steps. Anyway, again nice to hear from you. Hope all is going well with the both of you!!

Amanda

I live outside of Puyallup (hence I attend Bally's there). I am 35 and work on the East side. So I have a long commute everyday (a little more then 100miles round trip). I do try to go to Bally's 5 times a week. I take a few classes and meet with a trainer at least once. I would be willing to buddy up with someone if you live in my area. I have about 90 pounds to lose.

The weight lose for me is just a number. I have a mental body image I would like to achieve. However, I can not convey that you so the magic tangible number is 90 pounds at this time. I have an agressive timeline. I need to be 50 pounds down by July. I want to wear a tank top and be confortable with myself at the NHRA races help at Pacific Raceway at the end of July. I hope it does ot rain this year agian :-)
