Talking Hello!!

Greetings! I found this forum because I'm going to try Weight Watchers for the first time (and try to do low carb/Paleo as well). Low carb has always worked for me in the past, but I've stopped dieting for the past three years and I've gained almost 100 pounds. My dad passed away and then I was diagnosed with a thyroid issue. I used to be fit and I really want to get back to it. I've heard Weight Watchers is great for accountability, so I'm doing my best to journal my "points" and get online support through this forum.

I just got married a month ago to my best friend, and at 220 pounds I really want to get back to the 120 pound person I was three years ago. I'm really hoping this works because I'm no longer confident in my self and I rarely like to go out and feel so bad about the way I look.

I really hope to make some friends and get some good support here that will ultimately lead to my success in weight loss!

Hello! Welcome! I saw you on the 100-lb club board. I hang out there too. So hopefully see more of you there!

3FC is awesome for support. I credit a large part of my weight loss to the wonderful folks on this site who always inspire and motivate me and keep me accountable. So you're definitely in a great place. Good luck with your journey! You can totally rock this!

My aunt recently joined WW and has had great results.. I've watched her struggle with her weight my entire life and this is the first time she's actually lost weight!
I hope it works just as well for you. And Hi! =)
