My year of change!
 

Hey everyone, my name is Vanessa. A few years ago I did L A Weight loss and I was really successful (30lbs in 3.5 months!!). As soon as I went into stabilization, the centers in Las Vegas closed. Of course, the weight came back after some time... and then some.

I decided that 2011 is my year of change. I already kicked my smoking habit cold turkey (2 months and still going strong), and I decided that I was tired of being "fat" and lazy. So I decided I'm really going to to it this year. I've already signed up to participate in our 5k AIDS walk next week, and I've already lost 8.5 pounds since March 27th.

I believe that setting small attainable goals and having a wonderful support team is crucial to seeing your goals through. Oh yea... and drinking LOTS of water!

I can't WAIT for the new me!!

Sounds like your off to a great start! Welcome :)

Hi there! I think your wording, "tired of being fat and lazy" means you'd make a fine addition to our platoon of other 3FC members (including a guy or two) who are already making 2011 their year of change as well... come check out our thread and feel free to jump right in by making fictitious "Sarge" a pledge to lose a certain number of pounds this coming week. New recruits are always WELCOME!

Hi! I'm new here too!

Sounds like you've gotten off to a really good start! Can't wait to hear how the 5k goes. :)

Great job with not smoking! I've been thinking that I should probably quit too... It might make exercise a little easier... :)
