New member, long time lurker!

  • Hello All!

    I'm Elaine and I have just joined this site after lurking for several months. Never had a weight problem up until my late 20's and after 2 children and 20 years of eating too many chocolates, I'm now about 30 lbs overweight. I carry it all above the waist which I HATE. I have lost a few pounds here and there over the years but can't seem to keep it off.

    Thing is, I eat very healthily. I eat many whole foods, walk miles but not a pound will budge. Must be doing something wrong, I guess. Too many calories, I suppose.

    Nice to meet you!

    Elaine


  • This is a wonderful forum with lots of awesome, informative and supportive people

    A web site I learned about on this forum has help me tremendously

    It is: www.fitday.com

    I use it to track my daily calories and activities. It has been a REAL eye opener
    I've learned soooo much by recording my food intake and by reading this forum!

    Good luck and best wishes for your success!
