Hi all,
I've had this website bookmarked on my iphone for months and haven't had the nerve to actually join and post, but here I am.
I have been working out since September 2010, eating healthier since January 2011, and am seeing the pounds come off, slowly.
I know I'm not being as strict with my eating as I should be, so here I am joining so I can be more accountable to others, since I know that helps!

Looking forward to meeting you all!

Hello and welcome!

I've found this site to be invaluable in the short time I've been here. I'm sure you will too.

And congratulations on the weight you've already lost. Well done!

Right on, I'm happy you're here!!! Congrats on the lost weight! I'd be soooo happy if I'd lost 30lbs! That is huge!!! I hope one day I can say the same... Hope you have even more success in the coming days! I'm shy too

Good to meet you! I'm very excited to meet new folks here!
I want to buy a scale but I'm nervous that I'll become obsessive about it. I weigh myself at the place I exercise.

I'm a shy gal, too! Joined in Aug 2010 and only just now worked up the nerve to post. Congrats on your success so far! I'm a fan of "slow and steady wins the race" (and your weight loss doesn't sound that slow to me, either! ).

yes! I've had scales in the past, and I wouldn't get off of it. But I need to at least know my weight range.
