Hi! I'm new here too. We can support each other! :P Sounds like you've got a good plan so far to me. =3 Good luck with your goals!

You said you were a twirler? Did you perform with the marching band? I was in Colorguard last year, and the marching was the most physical activity I got. xD But twirlers are awesome. :3 Did you ever do fire?

Hi Sailorglitter!
Yay, a Louisiana girl! Sounds like you're ready to go with a good plan and a can-do attitude - the support you need is here - we'll all be here to see you through!

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 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!

All the best - good luck with your goals,
Lee

Welcome! I'm like you. I've thrown the diet books out of the window and I'm eating sensibly. No take outs, no convenience foods. I know I'll be slow but i'll get there and by changing my life style I'll keep the weight off. Best of luck to you, this is a great forum, you'll get loads of support
