Default My first post - Hello!

Hello!

Just wanted to introduce myself. I recently found this site and I'm stunned by the amount of information and inspiration here - I know it's going to make a difference to me!

I'm 34 and from the UK, and really keen to get healthy - I think I'm near my all-time highest weight now. I've been tracking my calories through an online diary for about a year and it's really helped me sort out my overeating... but not well enough to actually lose much weight! Still, everyday I'm a teeny weeny bit better than the day before, I think, and I'm ready to crack on in earnest.

After reading people's opinions on this site I got the craving for a Go Wear Fit and managed to find out there's a UK version available, so I - gulp! - ordered it as an early Christmas present. On the bright side, I've spent so much on that I won't be able to afford too many chocolates!

So anyway, hello to you all, and I'm pleased to join you!

Morgan

Hi Morgan!
The support you need is here - you can do this - and we'll all be here to cheer you on!

Glad to have you join us! There are lots & lots of different groups and forums - I'm sure you'll find some that will keep you motivated, inspired and entertained! There's also info and first hand advice on different eating plans and exercise to help you choose the right ones for you and get through the ups and downs.

There are bunches of people here with more to lose and some with less - the bottom line is that we all have to do it a day at a time. The good thing is that we'll have lots of company along the way.

I've only been here a few months myself, having NEVER been part of an online forum. What has been so eye-opening is how much it has helped me. Whenever I feel overwhelmed or defeated, I just log on and read some of the success stories, complete with their before & after photos - or read about others still dealing day to day with their challenges - and before I know it, the time has flown by and so have all the thoughts of cheating or giving up.

So welcome - you 've found the right place - join in by inspiring us and being inspired!
