Hey, i'm new here, trying to lose a little bit of weight and this seems like a really supportive place. i guess i'm what you'd call a "featherweight," not overweight at all but this year i've gotten a little chunkier than i used to be and it doesn't sit well on my frame. bleh. anyway counting calories absolutely drives me crazy (i've tried before) so i'm just trying to eat less processed foods and cut out a lot of desserts (my biggest weakness!)

it's nice to meet you all! here's to online inspiration & support

Hi Cassidy!
Sounds like you're ready to get started - how smart to address those pounds before they become 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, inspired and entertained! There's also info and first hand advice on different eating plans and exercise to help choose the right ones for you and 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

Happy Holidays!
