I'm new - saying hello!
 

Hello!

I am so happy to have found this site and this forum - it just what I need! I started my current healthy eating/exercise plan on the 7th of January 2008. 16.5 lbs of excess lard disposed off since then so am off to a good start. (WI day is Monday) Sticking with it though a difficult patch is my weak spot - but not any more! I have a 'good' feeling this time!
I am looking forward to posting on this forum and getting to know you all, you seem like a friendly bunch, I don't think you'll bite! LOL

Hi and welcome!! Wow you're off to a great start! I know exactly what you mean about "a good feeling this time" -- I've had the same experience! I've tried half-heartedly before, and/or given up when things got rough or food got tempting. Not this time. This is the longest so far that I've been on a diet (6 weeks), and I'm .6 lbs away from breaking the 200-pound mark for the first time since i remember stepping on a scale!!

I credit the wonderful people here with providing motivation and support! welcome and best of luck to you!

Róisín - :welcome2: You are right that this is a great place for support. I think getting through the tough times is what makes all the difference. It isn't that hard to keep on track when everything aligns - but them again when does that ever happen for more than five minutes!

Hey there & :welcome2:

Welcome aboard! :goodluck: I started 8 days before you did so were in this together!
