New girl on the block
 

Hi everyone! My name is Lara and I finally decided to join since you all seem so supportive (and I'm addicted to biggest loser and all the weight loss shows and there's so much discussion on these here!) I'm 25 and currently 255 lbs but so far I've lost 30 lbs just by doing dvds and exercise videos online. i hate the idea of going to a gym so i figured i'd lose some weight before showing my face in one of those! I also wanted to join just to thank and bless everyone for starting this forum and being involved and making a supportive place to come to. U rock! :carrot:

Welcome! There is a biggest loser section here so be sure to check it out. Good luck!

:welcome: Lara! You've got a great start getting in some exercise ^^ It doesn't ever have to be at a gym if you don't want! Walks here, videos there, outdoor activities... it all adds up! But if you'd like to hit a gym, there's no reason why you should feel bad about going. After all, everyone's there to be healthy :)

Best of luck to you!

Can't wait to get to know you better soon!

Thanks everybody! glad to be here.
