Default First Timer want to be 150

I do not know what to put here as co-workers and I are all trying to lose weight together, and are all going to try this together. I have lost weight before on my own for my daughters wedding a couple of years ago. But have gained it all back. I would like to lose about 25-30 pounds as I do NOT like the way i look when shopping for clothes.

Hi MrsLinda! Welcome! It's great you are doing this with co-workers....a built in support system instead of folks trying to feed you donuts

I'm one of those coworkers! =) And soon, you poor folks will be pestered by matchy-names like: MissJacey, MsSonya, MrsAndrea, etc! LOL

Yeah, we're a corny bunch but if it helps - its worth it!

And I agree.. we all wanted to be thinner but somehow that Halloween candy kept coming in and we all found ourselves stuffed with bagels during meetings.

I'm proud of us and Linda - I knooooow you are determined enough to do this! =)

Thank you MrsBrittney for the support. As you are the one who stated us all wanting to lose the weight. Although I believe my husband of 32 yrs will apprieciate the new me. Maybe then I can also wear some of the clothes that my two daughters seem to show off their thin bodies.

Welcome aboard Mrs Linda! I'm liking this "Mrs club"! It's awesome that you have the support network of your co-workers. That'll make such a difference, and I sure you'll all have great success.

Happy losing!
