Hi. New here, new round of dieting, would love the support of others. Have already read some other member posts, and looking to try out biggest loser group. I definetly need to get in shape, and get the scales into reverse instead of fast forward! My goal is 55-60 pounds in time for my daughters first communion may 1. About 10 lbs a month. It'll be hard work but worth it and fat...it's time to go!
Hi Aria!
Sounds like you're ready to get started with determination and a can-do attitude - the support you need is here - you'll be ready for that communion - 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 and inspired. 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 going off track or giving up. It has made all the difference in my success so far.
So welcome - you 've found the right place - join in by inspiring us and being inspired!
Hey, Aria! I missed your post the other day and just wanted to say welcome and wish you luck. This is a great place for support and advice and we're glad you're here!
