|  Newbe on the loose
Willow Here...
nice weight range to hang out in. I'm the biggest at home, out of all of my friends, and at work (and I work in a school  ). My autistic student doesn't mind, he thinks I am cuddly..then again so do my autisit boys. So lets see if my little hamberger on my profile moves to the right.

With a little hard work and dedication, I'm sure that burger will be taking quite the trip to the right.
How are you going to loose the weight? Get more active, join a gym? Counting calories? Let us know, and we can give tons of advice!

Thanks for all your encouragement. I started by cleaning the cupboards (my kids were horrified - autistic kids do not like change, and neither do I). Eating better will be a big step in our home, so we start there...then exercise  easier said then done.

I think I am going to sign up me and my kids at the family YMCA. They have a lot of progams to take advanage of as well as a warm pool. It is difficult with autistic kids because of all the sensory issues (noise, lighting, and such). We also have dogs to walk (I just can't walk that far "yet" and still breath).
