Hello! New to the site and so glad to be here!
 

Hi Everyone! I just signed on today. I have been struggling with my weight for as long as I can remember. I am currently 250 lbs and looking to lose 100 pounds..boy does that sound like a hard mountain to climb! I know I won't be able to do it alone, I stumbled onto this site and WOW!! I think I may have found what I am looking for, people who are just like me. While browsing through some of your posts I realized this is where I need to be. I am hoping to for some help, suggestions, and support in any way shape or form.
I am on a mission starting today!!:carrot: I thank you all very much in advance for any help or motivation!! We will all do great things I am sure of it!!

Good luck! Stick with it and you'll be successful!

Hugs and support on your weight loss journey :flow1:

Barb,

I wish you the best of luck with this journey. Looks like we started at the same weight and have the same goal weight to achieve.

It does seem like a long way to go, but just take one step at a time. You need to make long term choices with food and exercise. Do not get discouraged at any setbacks. Just keep on going and push through any problems you might find along the way. When I made the decision to change my life, I set out long-term and short-term goals. I did not gain this weight overnight and it will not come off quickly either. My long-term goal is to be at my goal weight in two years. I have added healthy choices to my diet and I exercise, exercise and exercise. The one big change in my life was to add a regular routine of exercise. I never thought I would tell anyone that I love to exercise, but I do.

There is a lot of great information on this site. Take a peek around and find out what has worked for others. You took the first step by joining this site and speaking up. Once again, I wish you the best.

Welcome!

It is a hard mountain to climb, but you will find many people here in various phases of progress to support you. Check out the 100lb club :)
