Default Hi! I am new!

Hi Everyone!!

I have been looking around and I think this is the group for me! A brief introduction of myself-
I lost about 7 lbs this past summer with WW and exercising but I gained it all back-I think part of the problem was that I had specific goals (a friends wedding and a trip to Hawaii) so when the events were over I went crazy with the food and no exercising. But I am recommiting myself to having a lifestyle change so I can actually keep the weight off.
I hope I can join your group because a lot of times loosing the first 5 lbs is easy and then everything after that is a struggle! I could really use the support!!

Welcome Briza! Hop right in and join us in our discussions. A lot of us have gone through the emotional high of losing the first 5 just to see a stall which makes anyone want to quit. Stick with it, and with us, and you'll see results!

Hi ladies! Some of you know me from the calorie counters and support forums. Since I got my weight down a bit since joining 3FC, I thought it might be OK if I joined you as well. 12 pounds of my weight is "baby weight" (I had my little doll last June) and the other 9 pounds was just regular good ole fashioned flab that I had put on mainly from one summer (2005) of not going to the gym and going out for food and drinks a lot. I look forward to hearing more about you all.

Hello and welcome!!

I find that I make my goals to big... "I want a perfect body by summer" but then I remember that it's winter and summer is soooo far away, and then I end up loosing motivation. But this time I've set a mini goal for myself (hubby's birthday), something very obtainable, and hopefully something that once I reach, will motivate me to keep up the pace. Here goes!
