Default Intro from Ohio USA
Just wanted to say hello! I just joined this afternoon. I've been trying to lose weight after two babies, the younger of which just turned four yesterday. It was very depressing to realize that I weigh as much now as when she was born Between that, a new year, and two family weddings coming up in 2010, it was time to do something! I'm glad to have found this forum, and hopefully it will keep me motivated. Cheers!

Hi MotherMe!
Sounds like you're ready to get started on the healthier you (and all those weddings!)- 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,
Lee

Thanks for the welcome. Lee, I have never really done this sort of thing online before, either. I did belong to a few parenting/mommy boards when my girls were first born, but that was more to alleviate boredom while nursing than for actual support... I've had a chance to read thru some of the forums and you're right: it's very inspirational to read others' success stories. Guess I need to set some goals for myself and get started.

Amy, I'm in northeastern Ohio, about an hour southeast of Cleveland. I'd love to have a diet buddy if you're interested.
