Hey there, just thought I'd drop in and say hi I'm not too overweight, but I'm starting to develop a belly and hate it! So hopefully I'll be motivated by your posts and won't let it happen!
Wow ... you're so smart to catch it early! I kept ignoring my belly until it expanded to my whole body. Dealing with it NOW will save you tons of problems in the future. Good luck!

Hi Obligatory!
How smart to deal with this now before it becomes more of a challenge - 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 and inspired. Try the Featherweights (for those with less to lose) and the weight loss support forums, they're active and very helpful - also the Success stories are a definite must for motivation.
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 since last fall, 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 going off track or giving up. It has made all the difference in my success so far.
So welcome - you've found the right place - join in by inspiring us and being inspired!
Good luck with your journey! I wish I would have noticed the little belly and started it working it and not putting it off . This site is great and will help you out alot!
