Default Hello from WV
I stumbled across this site when I googled reviews for Alli. I can't believe I actually broke down and bought a diet drug! I have tried ten thousand diets and failed ten thousand times but am praying that I learn to view 'dieting' as a lifestyle rather than a punishment with a goal weight in mind. This looks like a wonderfully supportive site and I look forward to reading everyone's point of view and hopefully making new friends. If you look at my goal weight, you'll see that it is 199 pounds. That would still make me overweight in most people's minds BUT, I haven't been in the 'ones' since I was 18 years old and that's my goal, darn it! LOL It seems so far away-too far away-but I am hoping that I will finally unlock whatever keeps me on this destructive path and reach that goal. I wish us all well on this journey we are taking together. Have a beautiful day!

Glad you stumbled upon our site! You've come to the right place!

No apologies or negative feelings regarding your goal weight. We're all shooting to be in another weight category than the ones we're in now. When you get there, we'll all be here to celebrate with you!
