Do lots of reading here in the forums. There's lots to choose from and you'll get lots of help. Ask questions, that's what we're here for.

Hi Moke:

I'm the moderator for the 300+ area and yes, you are more than welcome to join us. We don't currently have any guys that post with us. Have had a few from time to time but they tend to leave after a bit. Maybe it's too much "chic chat" that scares them away. Who knows?

If you're game, we're certainly open to having you join us. Our regular threads are the 300+ And Ready to Try Again ones. Currently we're on #882. Please post next over there so the girls can get to know you.

My best advice is to read lots. There's a ton of information on this site that will help you out. My other advice is to pick one good habit to start with and once you have that mastered, pick another. For instance, if you drink alot of pop, give it up and drink water. Maybe you don't get enough fruits and veggies in, try getting 5 servings a day. Before you know it, you'll be on your way.

Welcome.

Hi Mokster! and welcome.

I've seen a few men here and there... not too many stick around this particular forum -- like ThinThinker said... lots of girl talk there But you're certainly welcome to join in -- we're a supportive bunch and most of the talk is just each of us trying to find our way and take control of our lives. Nothing gender specific about that, is there? If you don't find that thread to be right for you -- look around; one is bound to be. The most important thing is reach out -- someone is always there.

Good Luck!!


Mel

Hi Moke

Oh WHAT a place to work if you are overweight! But OTOH maybe that makes you NOT want to eat them???? I don't know about your finding a new job but maybe you can find a new eating and health style instead! This is a great place to start!! You might get your ears turned pink from all the "girl talk" around here but hey, if you can take it, welcome!!
