I have a long way to go i need to lose about 130 pounds to get down to what i'd like to weigh and 110 to get back down to what i weighed when i met my hubby. Anybody here doing WW? Does this disqualify me from this month's challenge?

Did I explain myself correctly????? You know we are here for you and you can count on us for ALL the support you need. We love you Missy!!!!!!!
Yes I definitely will have to exercise. I already have a pannus (hanging belly) and the surgeon told me that after I get to my goal then I will have to have that removed. No biggie according to the surgeon. I will then have a flat stomach for the first time in my life. I already am walking in the channel at the pool about 2 miles. I am going to add some weights and also some circuit training.
Because I started out weighing over 450 pounds there will be some element of loose skin but the exercise will help some of that.
I hope you guys are doing well this morning!! I am about to take my nephew to school. I will be back home in about 20 minutes.

Congratulations to all of you who have been faithfully losing. I'm trying, but definitely not losing as much as some of you. And the holidays are coming up! What's a girl to do. :wink:

I'm making WW a lifetime thing. The minute I stop I gain. Have lost a modest amount since signing up here. Two young energetic dogs make it impossible to postpone exercise. They are pacing and complaining as I write. Guss I'd better get dressed and hit the trail.
