Hi, I'm new, was hoping to lose some weight and talk to people going through the same kind of thing.

I'm 26, I love art (all things painting, drawing--doing it as well as admiring other people's work). I am finishing up a technical degree and going to be looking for a better job soon.

I currently feel like I have 70 lbs to lose (but 90 would be a lot better...70 is livable though). I have several mini-goals and have not reached any of them, but have been on a diet for 3 weeks (23 days actually).

Hello. I am fairly new to this forum too but have found it to be wonderful.
Good for you for losing your excess pounds now why your young.
I too have about 70 lbs to lose, 90 would be great but I do not think I could maintain that weight long term. Its all about changing your life and living a more active and healthier lifestyle.

I agree, I think a healthier way of life would do wonders all around.
Great to meet you!!

Hi Girls,
Healthy life is the way forward and so so easy to get used to once you start. I have lost 65lbs and haven't used any fad diets, haven't weighed anything, measured anything and haven't given over my life to completely being a diet bore.
I feel great and you will to when you get here.
Drop me an email you reply if you want to know anything or just want any support.
Go girlies.

Yup, weight loss is about learning a new way of life, day by day. If you learn new, healthier habits now (like portion control, choosing whole grains and lean proteins, etc.) it'll pay off big-time in the long-run. Best of luck to you!

glad you girls are here! Hope you enjoy your stay on the boards. Good luck on your weight loss journey
