Hello,
Well, I'm going to give this weight loss thing a try. I'm 48 years old, and hoping to lose 62 pounds. I just got off the medication prednisone after being on it for 10 years and hope I can lose some of the weight I've gained. I'm trying the weight watchers diet and I am a sugar addict BIG TIME! I definitely need support because I am pretty weak willed when it comes to depriving myself. So please HELP! This site looks like a lot of fun.

Hello, I am right there with you on the new thing. I came across this site and thought it looked like fun and supportive. I am 29 years old and am looking to lose close to 60 pounds. I have two wonderful boys ages 5 and 11. I am married to my highschool boyfriend and he has been with me through "thick and thin". I am refering to my size. I was not over weight til the past 5 or 6 years. I am known to give up on diets and really hate telling my skinny friends my food issues. I am looking for someone to give and get advice, tips and just plain old support from. I know it is going to be hard work but as of yesterdays doctor's appointment I need to lose the weight for more than just my self esteem.

Hi Jenny. I'm 51 years old and have been on almost every diet that you can think of! About 2 1/2 weeks ago I started on the South Beach diet. In the first two weeks, I lost 10 lbs. Pretty good huh ! I find that this way of eating is easy to follow and you can have a wide variety of food after the first two weeks. Well, I'm a newbie here and I just wanted to say Hi ! I need to lose a lot of weight so you'll probably see me around. Debbie
