Hi all! I'm new!

I think it's time I finally put these few pounds to rest, and why not start on (or around) January 1st like millions of other people! I was down to 136 with Weight Watchers a few years ago, and I felt fab, so I would like to try to reclaim some of my former glory (and then some). The internet is my favorite thing ever (let's say aside from my boyfriend and dog), so I thought it would motivate me to join an online forum where everyone is on the same page about weight loss. I already read one post where someone said posting kept them from snacking, and I think that should be my new mantra!

Happy holidays, everyone, and thanks for including me!

Hi ATgirl!
Sounds like you're ready to get started - the support you need is here - 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 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!

All the best - good luck with your goals - 2010 will be our year,
Lee

Happy Holidays!

Welcome ATgirl,

I hope 2010 will be the final year you make that resolution.
Pick the right method, and stick to it until you see results.

Good luck!
