Hi My name is Lucy. I'm 28 years old and I have been overweight since the pregnancy and birth of my son. I have always felt overweight but rly only have been since then (about 10 yrs ago).

I have sooo many dreams left to conquer that will only happen if I lose this weight. I have hypothyroidism but the truth is that this wight did not just come from that. It came from boredom,insomnia, lonliness and emotional eating. I recently hit rock bottom.

I hope to one day be updating this with tales and pics of horeseback riding, skydiving, triathlons and maybe even a beauty pageant. I'm trying to look forward and to change my life.

I have many friends but none of them are overweight. Yes, that's right. I have spent the last 10 yrs as the fat friend. So I'm looking for some buddies on this site that can relate to my struggle and have a mutually supportive relationship with.

My interests are film watching, pet loving, recipe tackling, interenet searching, puzzling, shopping, any sort of pampering like manis, pedis, and facials, girls nights out, family time, kayaking, bicycling, reading(the Southern Vamp series, currently), celeb gossip...and any other trouble I can get myself into..

So..lets chat, motivate eachother, and dream about the wonderful goals we will achieve one day!

Im down 1.5 pounds this week so its technically a loss but I worked so hard this week. I never went above 1500 calories and i worked out 6 days this week, sometimes twice. I purchased a bike and last weekend rode 9 miles this week. I know I need to probably drik more water...but is there anything else that I can do to speed the process... I started at 237 and now Im at 226.5. Im doing a diet of 1400-1500 calories..aiming for 20 grams of fiber, 4-5 serving of fruits and vegis and no more than 55 grams of fat per day..and high protein 70-100 grams per day..

Help..I rly need encouragement..hubby's not dieting and my 8 year old is on a weight gaining program due to his adhd.
