Welcome, glad to have you join us. I suggest you look for a Challenge or Support group to join; small check-in groups make it easier to connect, get involved, and be accountable. We have groups centering around specific diet plans, themes, or age groups, so find one that inspires you and just post to join!

Hi, thank you for asking. I have paid for weight watchers through February, so I am starting today to track all of my foods. I can use 29 points a day and I hope not to use them all up at breakfast!!!!

As for exercise (I'm sure you can empathize), I have been paying for the gym for 6 years () and I plan to go in the mornings for at least cardio, and 4 times a week for weights. I also live in the hills, so if I just get my lazy behind off the couch, I could walk hills FOR FREE. The key is laziness (for me, it is). So that's why I joined this forum. To be accountable.

Thanks for setting up this service.

I love your idea of joining a challenge group, and appreciate any tips you guys have. I have to agree, that's why I signed up -- to be accountable, and to have a fixed goal. Otherwise.. I have found ! that there's little motivation to change.

Thanks guys!!!
