Red face New Chick from Canada

Hello All,

I just stopping by to post a bit about me. I live in Canada, in Windsor, Ontario. It is located right across from Detroit, Mi. I join this site to help me lose weight. I want to lose about 50 to 70 pounds. I am about 200 pounds. The last time I was at the doctor's he was starting to get worried. My blood work was all normal. And really have no idea why I can't lose much. He told me to keep a written journal, so I went one better, I am doing it on line.

So I am going to be doing the blog

Welcome. Since Chicks can be overwhelming at first, I suggest you look for a support group or challenge to join; a small group of friends to help keep you motivated. Find one you like that fits your needs, or inspires you, and just post to join.

Welcome Canada Chick!

I'm just getting started here too...
Definitley not new to dieting, of course.

I'm so glad for you that you're turning this around before you really go over 200. That's fantastic.

Good luck to you!

I totally agree with this post. I was lurking at first but it wasn't until I found a group that I really started to focus on weight loss, eating healthy, and getting fit. Now, I post daily as a reminder to myself that I need to change.

LADYBUGANGEL ~ yes, we have a CANADIAN SUMMER THREAD in the Support Groups forum; be sure to drop by for a visit sometime. There are a lot of Canadians on this site; you will see them all over the place. Journalling what you eat is a great idea; it really helps you to see where you can make some improvements.


to you too, JJ ~ Another Canadian here; I live in northern Ontario now (although I was born in the south). I know that you have seen the Canadian thread and the tall ladies one as well. I think you both will find this site very helpful and supportive ...
