New to the forum. Saw an ad for the site in a magazine and thought it would be perfect. I've put on weight over the last year and am feeling gross - time to get started but have trouble following through. What a great idea to connect with other women going through the same thing.
I want to lose about 50lbs. Maybe more, maybe less - just depends on how things go.
Do you have a plan yet? There are lots of programs ranging from simple calorie counting (which is what I do) to different types of diets to organizations like Weight Watchers. Whatever one you choose, you can have success if you stay with it.
Clover,
I'm new too (yesterday) and I don't have a clue about using a site like this. I lost 70about 4 years ago on WW and kept it off untill I hit a major life crisis and have gained a lot back. I'd like to lose 30. After keeping it off for 3 years I finally got rid of all my fat clothes and am in a fix now. Maybe we can support one another. Can I add you to my buddy list (if i can figure out how)
Anybody, are there directions I can print out? :-) August Oh, Good Luck!
Hi and thanks for the welcome. I'm don't have a plan yet but I know I don't want to follow a specific diet. Calorie counting and exercise I guess. I need to sit down and figure out what to do so I can get started. I feel gross these days and none of my clothes fit.
Supporting one another sounds good. That's one thing I find hard about sticking to something - no one to hold me accountable Not sure how to do the buddy list thing but it sounds good.
