Well done Missy!
I went to the gym today too - I went twice last week and it really boosted my weight loss for the week - I lost 3lb.
I've only been once so far this week, but I've been on the exercise bike 3 times aswell, so I'm not doing too bad! There's no doubt about it, the only way to lose weight is to eat a low fat, healthy diet and GET THAT BUTT MOVING!!
I'm suprised you haven't had more 'welcomes' - it seems awfully quiet around here at the moment!
Keep at it!
