Hello there! After browsing this site for a couple of weeks now, I thought I'd finally join! Everyone seems so lovely and supportive here. Although everyone's situation is different, it's amazed me how many people are fighting a similar battle to me and its comforting to know, from reading your stories, that there is light at the end of the tunnel.
As a kid I was always bigger than the rest and that continued through my teens into adulthood...I guess I just got used to it and knew no different. Over 2 years ago however, I joined a gym, thinking it would be the magic solution to my problem...but here we are now...and nothing has changed! I now realise the money leaving my bank every month doesn't magically melt the pounds off of me...i actually have to go more than once every-now-and-again-when-i-can-be-bothered!
A friend of mine is getting married July 2010, for which I am a bridesmaid, so I figured, if I can't have a wedding of my own to lose weight for, then we shall use her's as the impetus!
So we'll see how it goes....!
