New here - using technology to try to lose weight!

  • I have been so inspired by so many of the posts on this amazing website. I am finally going to try to get involved myself rather than lurking

    I so want this to be the time that I really do make lifestyle changes. I am really good at getting inspired and making plans... for about a week. Lately, though. I have really begun reflecting on who I am, what my habits are, how I got to my current state and I am looking for true changes in my life, not just a fad diet that I will never stick with.

    So, this is my attempt to use technology! I have started a blog (address below), I have my new twitter account, I will be posting here and hope to join some of the challenges.

    Any advice or things that have been particularly helpful to you? I really want to make the change this time.

    Check out my blog or twitter:

    I really appreciate any advice, guidance or insights y'all can give me.

    Thanks!!


  • I totally understand the being motivated and inspired for about a week thing, LOL!
    I find that when I start to lose the sliiiiiightest bit of motivation, I just come on here and read the posts, or browse through the Goal Photo Album. It has a way of getting me back in check (thankfully!).
    I think doing a blog is a great idea too, so sounds like you are well on your way!!!! Keeping a food journal has helped me a lot too this time around.

    Welcome, again!
  • Thank you so much for the great advice - I really appreciate it!!
