Default Sure... I want to be... Slim

Hi Everyone,

My name is Chantel and I'm a chocoholic!
I signed up for the SureSlim program and got my "program" today. I will be starting tomorrow and I'd love to meet likeminded people and just generally read forums to get the willpower and encouragement I need

I'm from Australia (I believe USA doesn't have SureSlim, but Canada does), so I understand there will be a difference with some of the things I say etc, but I've tried to convert everything to pounds to make it easier!

I weighed in today at 243.8 pounds, my doctor say's my goal weight should be 123.5 pounds

I'm setting myself mini goals for every 11 pounds (5 kilograms), to get those unwanted 11 pounds off each month. Therefor the 1st of December I'm aiming for 231 pounds and so on. Hopefully I can get there and I hope you'll all welcome me into your community because it looks GREAT!

I've started a diet blog, with the link as Chantel, if your interested, I'll start posting tomorrow (just to vent and be honest I suppose)

I look forward to getting to know everyone better and good luck with your individual journey's, I know there are lots of you who are at Goal and those "goal" photo's are definently keeping me going, you all look fantastic!

Chantel.

How are you doing on Sureslim? I'm on it, too, though not as strict as what you're supposed to do,.

Hello!
Just pay attention setting too many targets and prizes...you may end up getting frustrated if you aren't reaching your prize fast enough.

Hi Chantel,

I am still new here myself, but welcome to the board. I have found through my numerous attempts that the times where I was most successful was when I had a good support system.

Everyone here (including myself) are here to support you as well as each other. Please do not hesitant to connect with me or anyone else. Looking forward to sharing this journey with you.

Lynn
