Hi there!
I've introduced myself on the profile thread - but just wanted to drop by and say hello.

I have about 105 lbs. or so that I would like to see gone forever. I have read quite a few posts on this forum so far and can see how much motivation and support you all give one another - so here I am, to learn and also offer my support/encouragement to you as well.

Thanks!

Welcome TXmom!

I am so glad you can join us!

I need to lose around the same amount as you - so lets do it together! I am calorie counting and swimming, but my real problem is emotional eating.

Hang around here often and you'll get lots of great support and advice!

Love Amanda x

Welcome Txmom. I'm also on SBD and it is a great healthy plan. The SBD forum here is good as well but if you have any questions, feel free to ask me. There are also a lot of recipes on the SBD forum that apply to a number of different weight loss plans.

Thanks for the welcomes!

I picked up enough groceries today to get me going for a few days and will finish up my shopping on Tuesday. Tomorrow I am going to tackle my closet and dig out those "Walk Away the Pounds" tapes and start doing them as well. I hope they don't give me too much trouble with the back problems I am having right now - but I just don't trust pounding away on the treadmill just yet. I thought I'd start with something slow for now.

TXMomof3,

Welcome to 3FC . This is a great place for support and ideas. I was going to get the WATP tapes but I knew I didn't have the discipline to commit to any at home exercising. I joined a gym instead and don't allow myself any excuses for not stopping on my way home. Congratulations on starting the journey. Hope to see you around often.

Sandi - wanted to tell you that I read the letter to your son and was very moved by it. I am so glad that you have a reason behind your weight loss.
