and need all the help I can get! I don't own a scale, and I was at walmart today and I got on a scale and I weigh 210 lbs. I am not sure when that happened! I have gained 40 lbs in 3 years. I am stunned and dissapinted and sad, but determined! I don't want to look or feel like this anymore, I could really use a buddy! I was looking online for something that would keep me encouraged and found this site. I am not really too sure how it works, but it seems as if people buddy up?

I love cows too! the directions are on the FAQ and the cow was an option to use as a tracker, it's an option for avatars too! http://www.3fatchicks.com/forum/showthread.php?t=56332

Good luck with WW, I have done it in the past as well and it worked really well for me.

Mukisa,
I would love to buddy up! I think it would be easier to do this with someone!
Choclate is a hard one for me too, expecailly since i also tend to eat when upset or stressed!

for you chocoholics.. Nabisco makes a 100 calorie pack of Oreo thin crisps.. they are sooo good and light.. and only 3 grams of fat.. but they conquer my chocolate cravings.. and they are individualy packed so you dont go over board..
