  • Welcome Tubby! Good Luck to you, I hope to see you around more. Where were you in europe exactly? How is the big NY treating you so far?
  • Hey! I'm sort of new here as well. I started at 175 and want to get down to 130. So, we're needing to lose about the same amount. How are you planning on losing?

    Love,
    Deanne
