| Great that you want to join in Stephanie. Our current challenge is on the Introduce Yourself forum entitled Needing a Challenge. You can look around there and get an idea of what we do and jump right in and say hi. Some of the details of the new challenge will be changing. I will be sure to let you know when we post it on the Challenge Forum board.

Hi Stephanie,
Welcome. This forum is for all amounts of weight to lose so you are in the right place. Isn't it funny how we can hide 20 pounds or so and no one notices and then all of a sudden wham...you can't hide it any longer. Glad you found this site.
Let me first say thank goodness your daughter is alright. That alone is one of the biggest stress issues one can deal with. A hurt child.
I also want to mention to you that I will be starting a challenge on this forum in a few weeks. Several of us are now coming to the end of our present challenge and are putting together another one. You would be more than welcome to join in. Hope to hear from you. Good luck.

I am assuming that this forum is for those who have at least 50 pounds to lose and thus am excited to chat with all of you. Today is the first day that I have started to really focus - I actually joined this website over a month ago, didn't follow-up and gained 5 pounds. A recent trip to the doctor has gotten me blown away - I have never had to worry so much about weight - I have always been overweight by 20 pounds - but exercised often and most people couldn't tell I was that overweight - this past November my daughter was hit by a car and I have literally let myself go since then - she is doing terrific but I realized at my last trip to the doctor that if I don't stop taking care of myself that I am not going to be here to take care of her. So, here I am - looking for help and support because I cannot do this alone - thanks for listening.
Stephanie
