Hi there, I am getting ready to start the South Beach diet tomorrow and know that I am going to need support and people who are fighting the same battle as me to keep me accountable for my actions, and hope that I can return the favor. I am almost 34 years old and tired of being overweight!!! I am on yahoo messenger all day during the week, my screen name is in my profile, so if anyone else is using this feel free to i.m. me. I look forward to making many new friends on this adventure.
