Hi:

I am very excited to be here!

I am 45 and have a marvelous teen-age girl and an outstanding pre-teen boy. I have been married since the Fine Young Cannibals were driving everyone crazy, and been on diets since Moon Zappa was a unit.

I can't wait to jump in a participate, this forum looks like so much fun.

Best,

Mary

btw were do I get that nifty weight counter thing?

Whoo Hoo:

Got it!

Welcome and good luck. I am is Silicon Valley, too. Where are you? I am in Saratoga. Do you have a diet and exercise plan ?

Oh my starz! I am right next door to Saratoga in San Jose! I have been Weight Watchers, on and off, for over a year and dropped 27 lbs. I just started Alli today - needing something to get me going again. How about you? What are you doing?

I am a calorie counter, I think I have been on almost every diet there is, cost a lot of money, this time I refuse to spend a penny for someone to tell me what to eat. How are you doing on Alli?

Welcome Dritta!!!

Hello Lalique! Bargo, I have been losing weight on WW, but its been almost heartbreakingly slow. I started out at 198.5 a year and a half ago: a little over a pound a month. True, I have not been very faithful to the program, and I have not attended a meeting in almost a year.

The Alli is going well, at least for the 12 hours I have been on it. It does make things a little spicy, waiting to see if the side effects will kick in. It's a low-fat diet, nothing really ground breaking, just the little blue pill. So far its all been very pedestrian. What kind of work out are you doing Bargo, your results have been fabulous.

Have you started yet Shymon? five pounds a month is pretty fabulous too...you up for the Alli? btw, love the signature, I hope it shows up on mine.
