| thanks so much for your support! Yes, 150 lbs on a 5'2" frame is a bit much, and I am glad you can relate. When I tell my friends, they say things like "geeze wish I was 150" or "its not that bad" but when I look in the mirror...holy cow! ![]() I will be here daily posting and keeping up with you all. I have had a great first day!!!! I am so psyched!!! |

| Hi Stephanie, Welcome welcome welcome, despite the fact that you're making me a wee bit sick (I'd KILL to be 150, and I'm also 5'2"!!!!) You're definitely in the right place, this board is a godsend, and I am constantly amazed with how friendly, helpful, supportive, and giving everyone seems to be. If you ever need anything, give me a PM!

| Hello Lookingforward, Isabeau, Austlyn and Dotsamatha! What great support, I can't wait to get moving. Geesh...only day 2! Lookingforward, you have done a great job so far!! Don't ever give in! I myself just couldn't let myself go any further. I know, 150 -- big deal, but did you know that 16 years ago, before having 3 kids, I was in the Army. It took me 8 times to try to get IN because I was so UNDERWEIGHT. They finally waivered me a pound to reach the minimum 98 lbs!!! SICK ISN'T IT??? I have been happy and thin until I hit 30 and then that cruel mother nature witch found me hiding in the forest trees of the Adirondacks and said AH HA! Okay....well, that is what I am blaming it on!!! We'll all get there...one day at a time. Thanks for your help and support, and if you need me, I'll be here!!!
