I'm 42 and really need to shed some major weight. I'd love to do weight loss surgery or lap band but I'm just too scared to go under the knife. I don't exercise much cuz there's not a lot that I can do right now other than walk do water fitness class twice a week. I'm a former Lifetime Member of Weight Watchers (reaching goal as a preteen or teen - can't hardly remember that far back) and I'm currently in a TOPS group. I need that group support for accountability as I don't believe much in will-power anymore. I'm not a fan of veggies and fruit - which I'm trying to change. I can use all the motivation and prayers your can send my weigh (lol).

Hi Tammie!! I just joined about a week ago & I'm also from Texas. I have over 100 pounds to lose but I've decided that this is my summer to really go for it. I'm also a member of a local TOPS chapter (Take Off Pounds Sensibly). I joined in July 2005 & so far I've lost 26 pounds. Good luck to you & it's nice to see so many Texans in here!!
Yeehaw!!!

Married mother of two. I work aprox. 55 hours a week as a pump mechanic for commercial and military airplanes. Been fighting with my weight for years, achieved my "goal weight" three years ago, and a very high fitness level...but I've let it all slide...it's amazing how fast it goes....I feel like lately I"ve been borderline toying with a binge eating disorder and it disturbs me!!! I also just recently started college classes again in attempts to get my nursing degree....sooooooooooooo, I know it's a EXCUSE...but it's so hard to find the time to exercise!!!! I need to get back to my yoga...that really had a way of calming me down..much like eating after a long day calms me down...

Success is the good fortune that comes from aspiration, desperation, perspiration, dedication, and inspiration!
Workin on Being healthy and eating better. Since my junior year of high school, I packed on probably 85 lbs. My goal is to lose that 85 lbs and then some. I'm striving for 145-155 lbs. I think that with my height etc...that'd be a good weight for me. I'm working on getting there and I've never felt more motivated. I have friends and family helping me along the way as well as co-workers and now TRAINEO. This is the first time in my life that I've actually been EXCITED about getting up, getting moving and Leaving this fat butt behind. I've set myself smaller goals along the way and I'm trying my hardest to reach them. But if I fall a step behind... I WON'T give up!!! NOT THIS TIME...
