Hi everyone!!

I quit smoking two years ago and packed on 35lbs...YIKES!!!

I just started a low fat, low sugar diet and it seems to be working...I'm down 8lbs in 9 days...YAY!!

I was on South Beach for a full year and seemd to just kind of stalled out.

I'm looking forward to meeting lots of interesting people and sharing support and success stories

Congrats Jill on your loss so far!! 8 pounds is amazing!

Hi Jill - congrats on quitting smoking and your losses so far! Sounds like you've found yourself a working plan to go with, so just keep on truckin, and keep on posting!

Can't wait to hear more from you soon.

Thanks!!! It's so nice to be around such supportive people!!

I recently joined Curves and really like the concept behind the workouts...especially since there are no men in there...makes it much easier to concentrate on my actual workout versus being self-conscious
