New Around Here

Hi, my name is Emma and I am one of the new members. I just thought I’d take a few minutes to introduce myself.

I’m 24 years old and I come from England. I’ve lost 11lb since Jan 23rd this year and am hoping to lose another 40. I’m just trying to be sensible but not deny myself something if I really really really want it! I’m also using sparkpeople.com. I have cerebral palsy and am in a wheelchair 95% of the time although I can walk a short distance with a walker. I love to read, and to swim and I do voluntary work.
I decided that I wanted to lose weight to be healthier and also so my doctors stop telling me every little problem I go with is “because of your weight!”

Thanks for letting me join, I’m looking forward to getting to know everyone!

~Emma

Welcome, Emma!

I use Weight Watchers and SparkPeople, too. I figure that I can use all the help that I can get.

We are here if you need us for support or ideas or suggestions. Just ask!

Hi Emma! This place is great. So many people to help you through it all. Weight loss. Emotional crashes. We’re here to meet our goals, and these gals are awesome.

Congrats on the weight loss so far! Sounds like you’re already on your way!

Hi Emma! :wave:

Don’t you just love SparkPeople? I use it too. This is a more intimate setting for support though and has lots of warm caring women to see you along the path.

Glad you joined us!
