Default New Maintainer... :)

So for months I've been looking forlornly on these forums waiting for the day when I would be able to officially join you all.

And it's here. Well, yesterday it was. I promised myself if I weighed in again at 135 then I would post here, and I did.

So here I am, down 65 pounds to 135...a weight I thought I would never see

I know that the hardest part of my journey is just beginning but I'm determined to not go back!

Smile Looking forward to being a maintainer

I have to be in the right mindset from the start if I'm going to make my goals... so please forgive me for lurking on this forum. Being a maintainer is where I've failed in the past. thank you to all that share their stories.

If you have lost one pound and kept it off, you are a maintainer.

Megan and bargoo... thanks for welcoming me and making me feel a part of this group. I didn't think that I was a maintainer since I haven't met goal, but bargoo you make an interesting point. I have been happy to find this forum and amazed at some of the members that have been posting for years and years. I can most assuredly find inspiration from being here.

DocAud, I dieted for years and was able to lose but was never able to maintain, it was after joining 3fc that I learned how to do it and I learned from people who had maintained for a long time. You can do it, too.

DocAuD I am a newbie maintainer but the maintainers here are so knowledgeable and inspiring! I have learned so much from them and I hope to be a part of the maintainers here for a long, long time!
