Hi, I'm new to the community and very excited to get started. In the past I have based my happiness on how much weight I was going to lose. I thought that I could be comfortable when I was thin. Well, I'm trying something new this time. I am already happy and comfortable with myself. Weight loss would be cool but it's not the end of the world if I don't succeed. Maybe this angle will be more successfull! Thanks for listening and I look forward to my time here.

Hi Nell,
You have a great positive attitude about losing weight--it's so hard sometimes to keep that positive energy. It looks like you are currently the weight that I started out with, so we have some similarities. Although I could certainly use your mindset!
Nice to meet you.

mela,

Thanks for your support. I'm sure I'll be posting about a food cramming session at some point, but I can be happy today!

Hi Nell,
great attitude!..I could definately use some of that! ..you are so right about feeling happy right now because I end up binging when I am down. So I am going to follow your lead!
