I am new. I think I can lose 25 lbs. that have been hanging around for almost two years now, since the birth of my babygirl. I am really hoping to lose the weight...I keep think, It's only food! Why cannot I resist it. I tried WW and wasn't successful, but I'm hopeful in 2010. Here's to 2010. Let's begin!
Hi sgreene!
Don't feel like the Lone Ranger - so many of us have tried to lose or have lost only to gain it back -but we're here now - sounds like you're ready to get started - the support you need is here - we'll all be here to cheer you on.
Glad to have you join us! There are lots & lots of different groups and forums - I'm sure you'll find some that will keep you motivated, inspired and entertained! There's also info and first hand advice on different eating plans and exercise to help choose the right ones for you and get through the ups and downs.
There are bunches of people here with more to lose and some with less - the bottom line is that we all have to do it a day at a time. The good thing is that we'll have lots of company along the way.
I've only been here a few months myself, having NEVER been part of an online forum. What has been so eye-opening is how much it has helped me. Whenever I feel overwhelmed or defeated, I just log on and read some of the success stories, complete with their before & after photos - or read about others still dealing day to day with their challenges - and before I know it, the time has flown by and so have all the thoughts of cheating or giving up.
So welcome - you 've found the right place - join in by inspiring us and being inspired!
i'M new
Happy Holidays!
Surf around and settle in!
