Hi Folks!

Let's see, I'm 43, 201 lbs, and in need of a buddy. I'm a full time parent of 5 kids from 17 to 8. I believe I must of tried every diet under the sun. Some have been moderately successful but then the weight just snaps right back on as soon as I stop. Sigh.

So I have decided to forget all of the fancy diets and just reduce my calories and exercise.

So anyone out there game to lose some pounds with me?

You guys can be my buddies too! I'm 25 and definitely need the support. I fell off the wagon last year, but just came back today to see if I could get the encouragement to get started again. Everyone here was always so helpful to me. Anyhow, you can PM me if you want to and I'll give you guys my email address so we can build each other up if we can't make it to the board. have a good day!!

Hi Ladies!

Sorry I have been off line for the last couple of days. Seesh! between soccer,cub scouts, boy scouts and girl scouts there are some days I wonder when I get to do something for me...

Today I've been bad, darn it. I simply can not sit at the computer and not eat. So how do you break a bad habit anyway? I swear I'm not hungry until I start typing and then the munchies hit.

Well, anyway I'm glad I found someone (or better yet you found me! =) ),

Hello. I too am in need of someone to help me to lose weight. I would be glad to give encouragement.

Hi Ladies,

Welcome preytherosary!

Have you all checked out the new 4th of July Challenge? I decided to take them up on it!

grrr...they won't let me post a link to the challenge (less than 50 posts) so i recommend you do a search on 4th of July Challenge.
