Today is the start of change in my life. I do not want to go on a temporary diet. I want to change my lifestyle permanently. I have started by getting rid of some bad habits, incorporating better foods into my diet, and realizing the true portions of serving size. I will stop making EXCUSES because ultimately i live in this country where I make my own decisions and my body is fully under my control and responsibility. I am 26 years old and heading to a life full of disease and pain if I don't change my ways. I look forward to our chats and words of support in this group

Welcome! Great decision. You can do it!

I think we are capable of so much more than we think. Joining this site has been a major change for me. It's working! I think it's just the idea of being able to come here and give updates, confess, get encouragement, see my progress, and see how others do it. We are not alone! I look forward to logging on every day!

It's about being kind and loving to ourselves - mind, body, and spirit.

Look forward to hearing your progress, struggles, achievements, etc!
