Hi there im new to this web site am looking for friends to chat to im 287 pounds I want to get down to 168 pounds so i have about 119 pounds to lose!!

You can do it! Getting started is the hard part, but you're here and that's a terrific beginning.

Welcome, Geemie! :welcome3:

:wel3fc: Hi geemie!
Looks like you're off to a good start - 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 and inspired - you'll be a wonderful addition to any of them. There's also info and first hand advice on different eating plans and exercise to help get through the ups and downs. Try the 100 lb forum and the weight loss support forum, they're active and very helpful - the Success Stories are an absolute must!

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! :df:

All the best - good luck with your goals,
Lee
