I'm New here; trying to make a positive start

  • I found this site in Oprah mag. and thought id give it a try. I'm 38 years old and have always struggled with my weight. I want to lose weight and keep it off and I'm hoping to meet some folks with the same goals and find some positive encouragement! Looking forward to getting to know yall!!!!
  • Hi and welcome. You can probably lose weight without changing what you are eating now ... just yet.
    Fitday.com is a free site where you can enter all your intake. Learn to measure as you scoop out your helping of whatever you're eating. You'll soon learn more about the nutrient content of your food and then we'll help you make slimmer choices!
  • Awww, thanks for the help..... i was afraid no one would comment me, guess i'm a little insecure about these sites. just not familiar with the way it works. i'll go check out the site!!!
  • Tina ... don't let that insecurity thing get to you. There really are lots of folks here who want to help you. If you get skipped or someone posts past you or whatever ... it is not about you! This is just such a big place!

    Hang in! read and post, read and post. Someone will help you.
  • I'll comment ya! Welcome from one newbie to another - and to all the others too!

    Wow this is a busy place! When I started to comment I saw how many more had joined just between my own quick posts!

    So... Howdy ALL!
  • I joined just recently, and yes, this is a busy place. I have been checking out different forums, trying to figure this all out. I guess just look around and then jump in somewhere that interests you.
    Welcome to the list!
