Hello- my name is Jessie, and I want to be hot!! lol... No, really, though, I need to lose weight, and I've tried a lot of different things, which is a bit annoying, and nothing has worked. I happened upon this website, and I kinda read stuff for a few days, and I totally love the support, the motivation, the attitudes. I feel like this is a great place to get some advice, as well as help out however possible.
Ok- so some things bout me... I am 23, 5'10'', would like to lose about 100 lbs, and see how it goes from there. I have three jobs- and you guys will love this- one of my jobs is at GNC(health store), and another is 24 Hour Fitness. Go figure, huh?! Anyways, I basically have all the resources at my fingertips, I just need pushing now and then. I've always been big, but I'm sick of it, not that I've ever been happy with it, really, but at this point, I'm worried about my health- my mom died two years ago of a heart attack because of high blood pressure, and she smoked ciggs.- and I don't want to die young. Also, I want to wear cute and skinny clothes. :D
Anyways- off to work, but I'm really excited about joining this site, and I hope that if anyone has good advice, they'll gladly share it!!!
 
Hi Jesse!! Glad to have you!! You sound like your going to be fun!

Do you know what kind of diet you are considering?? I"m a huge fan of the 1200 cal. diet.

You can start a diary, we use it to keep track of our calories and excersize, and it helps others to keep tabs on you!

Good luck hun, and let us know if we can help you!!
 
Hey Jessie!
You've definetely come to the right place if what you need is encouragement and motivation. They're big on that here. I sincerely wish you meet your goals and are hot like you want to be.

If you need someone to chat with. I'm here.

Hi, and welcome to the forum.

You were talking about a 24-hour fitness place. Was that LifeTime Fitness? I love that place. We used to have a membership there.

Anyways, I wish you luck.
See you around.
 
Hey everyone- yeah, I think this will be a great way to do things :)
Newbride- I started the 1200 cal diet today, which, it doesn't seem like it will be tooooo tuff, just hafta wait and see. I'll be starting a diary soon, but it's probably gonna be a day or two- I work a lot...:(
Florentin- 24 Hour Fitness is actually the name, I think its mostly a western gym, I lived in Minnesota for a bit, and I know they have a ton of Lifetimes. Umm, 24 Hour is the gym they used on The Biggest Loser :)
Anyways, I'm off, talk to ya all later!
 
Welcome to our forum and we know you can reach that goal we all will by this time next year! You are doing good on the calories of 1200!
 
Thanks Redneckwoman!~ I want to try and get to my goal sooner, which probably sounds crazy, cuz ya know, stuff happens, but I'm really competitive (even with myself) and a little challenge will push me to work harder. I kinda like the 1200 cal thing, at first, not so much, but its not bad now! The only problem is eating out- even if your eating healthy, how do you know WHAT your eating? know what I mean??
Is there a website with calorie counts of all foods or something?? :)
 
Hi Jessie
I am new here too. And I'm 5'10" and would like to lose near 100lbs. But I'm far from 23, lol! I think posting somewhere that keeps your interest, with people you like and who will check up on and challenge you is a big help while trying to lose weight. I think this seems like just that place so far.

Jen- I totally agree, I love this place!! :) I know it'll be a while before I'm 100 lbs down, but everyone here is great at cheering you on and getting you going, I look forward to sharing tips and stories :)
 
here is what they had me use it has all the foods and calories even when eating out. You dont have to join to get the info. I am sorry you took that wrong I meant by this time next year we will be at our goals and maintaining them lol
 
Jessie your my hero girl!!! I TOTALLY can't wait to be hot with you lol!!!
