Hello hello! Newbie here...

  • Greetings everyone!!! I just found this site and have been enjoying reading everyones stories.
    I haven't started a diet or an exercise routine but I'm planning on making a change in my life! What I'm going to do I haven't decided yet. What better place to search for ideas and inspiration! Please share your favorite advice and ways to lose the weight.
  • Welcome to the forum! You will find great support and information here!
    I personally count calories, I keep mine between 1300-1400 per day. I chose this method because it is free, no weekly dues to pay, and because it allows me to have a flexible food plan.
    I would also encourage you to find some type of exercise that you enjoy and try to incorporate some weight training into it. This will help with excess skin.
    The most important piece of advice I can give you is NOT TO GIVE UP! If you have a bad meal, bad day, bad week, hop back onto the wagon and keep trying.
    Best of luck to you!
  • That's great advice! Thank you NEmom! Your weight loss is inspiring. Do you mind me asking how long its taken you to get where you're at today?
