New here
I am shannon and have been on the health kick for about 2 1/2 years. ( 4 months before I turned 30) I have gained back some of what I had lost. I was really starting to get back in to bad habits, and that is bad for me and my family. I can feel how slugish I have been and just not good. Not to mention how much better I…

I'm back!
Hi everyone, I was here last winter, and lost 15 lbs before my son's wedding. Then I lost my motivation. Well, not entirely true. I haven't gained that weight back, and I have been so much more aware of what I eat. Logging what you eat is fabulous, and the only thing that has worked for me. Now I am ready to lose the rest…

Awesome!
So happy to have found this place! I need all the support I can get. I'm not very good at staying motivated. Always wind up with the "it's just one" or "it's okay to have a cheat day" and next thing you know, I am back with my old habits and nothing's changed. Hopefully this will help me stay on track and reach my goals!

I just found this site today while surfing. Looks like an interesting site. I have a deadline to meet with weight loss - April 09 - and 20 pounds.
