I hope this will help me in losing weight. When i reached 200 lbs, I thought nothing could be worse. Well I now am at 300 lbs and need to find some way to start the weight loss process.

Hi d3girls!
The old cliche about the journey starting with the first step is really true - you have just taken your first step coming here - small changes can keep you from feeling overwhelmed but also can lead to great results - the support you need is here - 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 and inspired - I know you'll be a wonderful addition to any of them. Try the 300 forum and the weight loss support forums, they're active and very helpful - also the Success stories are a definite must for motivation - it's the proof that it can be done!

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 since last fall, 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 going off track or giving up. It has made all the difference in my success so far and I have a lot to lose, too.

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

All the best - good luck with your goals - 2010 will be our year,
Lee

It's not to late to turn it around! Welcome - you are among people who understand...

You have come to the right place if it's support you need. If you need encouragement, information it's all here. It has been very helpful for me. I've only been here a week and the progress is amazing. The first few days were brutal so I would come here and read the success stories, look at the progression pictures and get pumped. I now know that I can do this and the maintainers are full of helpful keep it off info. So we will do this...we are doing this together. WELCOME
