Hello I am new to this site:
 

Hi everyone:

I am starting on the south beach diet tomorrow. I tried it before and it worked well till I went back to my old habits.I never had a weight problem till I quit smoking in 2002. I gained 30 lbs.in 2 months then 5 lbs a year after that. So here I am 60 lbs. later.
I am hoping if I post my progress weekly it will keep me motivated.

Wish me luck.

Welcome getitright! I pretty new her also. This place is great. Got me over that first failure that would normally just make me quit...So stick with it and post often.
Congrats on the quitting smoking. I just quit in OCT 2007 and put on 40 lbs...So I know how hard it is...but like I said this place is a lifesaver!
Good Luck!
