Default New here!

Hello everyone,

I am new here. I’ve been following a healthier life style for the past two months and I've lost something like 9 kilograms already. Your support of each other is so wonderful and that’s why I decided to join you. Just forgive me if I don't understand some of the things you say as I am NOT a native speaker of English.

Thanks

Thanks for the warm welcome, ellis, clickchick and cakses. I am really happy to have joined you.

And thanks for the compliment, ellis.

To answer your question, ellis, I go to a nutritionist and she gives me a plan called "The Points Diet" but in all truth I am not following her plan as strictly as I should be. I just follow what suits me and make some alterations to the program. My main concern is going back to my old habits and that is why I keep visiting my nutritionist every week; to be monitored.

Hi! You're English sounds wonderful, but if there is anything you don't understand somebody will always be happy to explain if you ask!

Congratulations on the weight you have lost already! And welcome

and to 3fc site. Firstly on the weight loss so far that is such a great start to your weight loss journey.

Here I am sure that you will find the help and support that you will need along the way on your weight loss journey. People here will answer your questions no matter how silly or small they may seem.

English may not be your native language but you type beautiful English which you should be very proud of. People I am sure will be willing to explain any words or phrases that you are unfamiliar with. I have only ever found people to be only to willing to help others.

for the rest of your weight loss journey and reaching your goals along the way.
