    I thought I could, but I just can't do it by myself.  Two years ago, I lost a large amount of weight and got down to my slimmest ever - 135 and a size 6. I'm 5'2 and I've always been heavy (180lbs and a size 16 at my worst)so this was a major accomplishment for me.  But when my fiance (now husband) and I moved in together, the weight slowly started to creep back on.  Now, 2 years later, I'm at 150 and I am not going to let it get any worse.  I'm happy with the way I looked at my wedding, but I am not going to let myself get any bigger.  I know I need some support and this is what I'm going to do:

    I'm starting weight watchers tomorrow, at 5pm and by this summer I am going to be back to 135 and I'm going to stay there.

    that's the goal anyway.  I know there are many WW Bees out there, so any words of encouragement would be greatly appreciated.

    Good luck!  I'm right there with you!  I finally resolved to start eating better and working out daily.

    Good luck! We've decided to stop buying delicious "crap" for the house (i.e. no more Oreos or ice cream) - not so much for me, but because FH needed to ban them. Keep the Bees up-to-date - we'll keep the encouragement coming so you can meet your goal for swimsuit season!

    That's great! I know you can meet the goals you set for yourself :) I am currently working on some weight loss/ toning also and believe me, I understand how difficult it can be, but it is SO rewarding to start seeing results & fitting into your clothes better! Good luck & keep us posted! I've never tried WW BTW, but I've heard it works!
