Biggest hurdle to overcome in weightloss: Working out

Following any specific plan: Calorie counting and dieters green tea.

What is different this time in your weight loss efforts than in the past: I -really- want it. I used to get so comfortable going " I lost 10 pounds, my pants fit better! I feel great, Im going to celebrate with a cheeseburger.." Yeah.. not going to do that this time.

Anything else you would like to share with us: I really would like to get to 200 this year.. I'm not sure if I could do that and 250 would be great also.

Welcome and good luck!

Hey there, Sara, and

We have a great Calorie Counters forum here. You also might want to look at the 20-somethings, for those in that age group.

As for motivation...well, I don't rely on it. Sometimes it's there, and sometimes it isn't. Instead, I made a commitment to myself that I will stick with my plan. It isn't always easy, but the commitment means that I get it done, even if I don't necessarily feel like it.

Something to consider, anyway. Jump on in, get posting, and get going. Can't wait to get to know you better!

Hey girlie welcome and good luck on your journey, we are all here for you!!!
