Carrie, it sounds like you are well focused on the goal! Congrats on the 20 pounds already gone and keep in touch and let me know how you are doing! I can feel you on the overweight all my life vibe. I finally decided enough was enough as well, I hit the size 18 and at 5'4" that just wasn't cutting it so I decided to get back in the single digits myself as well. Talk to you soon!

Hello everyone! I'm Carrie. I'm 28 and live in AZ. I've been married nearly 7 years to my high school sweetheart. We have 2 daughters, 4 1/2 and 1 1/2. I have been overweight most my life, and right before my 28th birthday this last year, I just got fed up with buying bigger clothes and feeling like crap all the time. I starting paying more attention to what I ate, drank more water, cut out alcohol and joined a gym that I actually love going to. I've lost 20lbs so far, and would like to lose 20 more. I started in a size 16 pants and am currently in a 10, I would like to be a size 6. I work 2 nights a week, but other than that I'm home with my family.
