HI!
My name is Sharon and i'm a new member of this forum!
I'll admit that I was a bit sceptical when I first saw this guild. t's just gonna be another group of skinny-crazed tweens was what I thought. I'm glad that I gave this guild a shot though. After I browsed through some of the major disscusions in this guild, I discovered that many of the members have the same REALISTIC goals as I do: returning to my healthy weight and actually maintaining it!
Like many girls out there, I tried and temporarily achieved the "perfect silhoute". And as many of us know, it is frustrating to gain the weight back in what seemed to be a fraction of the time it took to lose.
What i'm trying to say here is that I'm hoping to be a benefitial addition to my fellow members as well as stay motivated to stick to a healthy lifestyle.
I also have a confession.
I've turned to bullimia and anorexia in my desperation to lose weight, only because I did not see any positive changes in my body from simply excercising regularly and eating well.
Through my experience with these damaging practices, I have learned that their harmful effects outweigh their benefits.
So by joining this guild, I am saying that I need help in staying motivated and being patient with the slow-process of losing weight in a healthy way.

I can relate on the anerexia, been there done that.
Trust me, you'll find many people here who are willing to keep you motivated and if you need/want can keep tabs on you.
I find I always do better when I know others are rooting for me.

Thank you Soi Tsuba for your support!
I'm hoping to get back down to 100-110 lbs in time for my grad this summer. I know that it seems low, but that was my weight back when I was not into binging or compulsive excercising (one year ago).
I'm currently 121 pounds and feeling like i've lost myself. =[

Welcome!!
I wish I was as lucky as you having a starting point of 121 pounds..my starting point is 220 pounds, LOL, pregnancy wasn't too good to me on that respect, and I didn't even eat junk food all the time!
But none the less, losing weight is hard for everyone no matter what size you are...I wish you lots of luck!!!
