Hi, I've never tried an online support community like this, but I think it's a great idea. I look forward to meeting a lot of the very nice people who seem to be a part of this.

A little background, I'm fast approaching 40 and I would love to leave behind a checkered past of broken diets once and for all. I've flirted with a number of plans, Ornish (just can't do the vege thing), and Body for Life, which I had success with once upon a time...until I sabotaged myself. That's an issue for another time.

So, starting tomorrow, I'm back on BFL and the challenge. Look forward to meeting y'all.

I joined this website tonight and signed up for the free month of Push. I can not think of anything to do but try again, harder. S/C/G=289/283/170. I am in need of some encouragement, and sometimes a "no nonsense" talking to! Glad to have found this place.

Hello and welcome.You will find plenty of people to support you. here I'm 50 and have been on PLENTY of diets and this time it just seems so easy.I know its all the support and knowing I'm NOT the only one struggling to lose weight.
