    Camelknees33, you will find so much support and encouragement here! This place and the friends I have made here has been a God send for me! Good Luck!
    O and the 20 post /20 day minimum rules also is in place for private messaging because as I understand it they had trouble with spammers making fake accounts and flooding peoples private message box, so they had no choice but to put that in place to protect their members.
    Again, good Luck in all that you set out to accomplish!

    Hi Tamara!
    Mom, Grandma & college? - you have your hands full - good for you! Best of luck with your goals - we'll all be here to cheer you on!

    Glad to have you join us! There are lots & lots of different groups and forums - I'm sure you'll find some that will keep you motivated, inspired and entertained! There's also info and first hand advice on different eating plans and exercise to help choose the right ones for you and get through the ups and downs.

    There are bunches of people here with more to lose and some with less - the bottom line is that we all have to do it a day at a time. The good thing is that we'll have lots of company along the way.

    I've only been here a few months myself, having NEVER been part of an online forum. What has been so eye-opening is how much it has helped me. Whenever I feel overwhelmed or defeated, I just log on and read some of the success stories, complete with their before & after photos - or read about others still dealing day to day with their challenges - and before I know it, the time has flown by and so have all the thoughts of cheating or giving up.

    So welcome - you 've found the right place - join in by inspiring us and being inspired!

    All the best,
    Lee
