Hi everyone! Just wanted to introduce myself. I'm new to this section of the board. I got engaged in June and am wanting to get in shape by my wedding next June. I've lost 125 lbs. in the past - I was over 300 lbs. at one point. I've kept the majority of it off but still want to continue with eating healthy and exercising. Anyway, I have a website on my weight loss progress at http://www.lauragetsfit.com, if you're interested in checking it out. It has my weight loss story on there and some before and after photos. I look forward to getting to know everyone in this section. Thanks!

Hi!  Congratulations on getting into a healthier way of living - that's wonderful.

....Since you're introducing yourself, I think I'll butt in and introduce myself:

I'm Kris - nice to meet everyone!  I got engaged at the beginning of July, and I want to lose weight both for looks and health - especially for my prospective Fall '11 wedding.  I've always been overweight; I use a wheelchair, so many forms of exercise are off-limits.  ...And I lack disciplne, really. I'm into it at the start, then....

I did Weight Watchers on my own for a while and definitely lost weight.  Then, I moved in with my now-fiance and fell off the wagon.  Because I'm unable to stand up & weigh myself, I didn't realize I'd gained that much weight.  Today, though, until I saw a good friend - hadn't seen her in a while - and she gently told me that I'd gotten heavy.

So I'm here for the "accountability factor" that you all seem to provide for one another - I'm hoping that'll help me get into healthy, life-long habits.
