Hey there. :-) My name is Jane and I'm new to My Fitness. I'm hoping to be able to make a lifestyle change in my life. I have about 118 pounds to lose. WOW! CRAZY! I want to lose weight not only for health reasons but also to get my self-esteem back! Look forward to getting to know everyone here.

    Just joined recently as well! Only have about 10-15 pounds left to lose, but have lost 40 pounds over the last 2 years! I love this site so far!
  • I'm new to all of this, so any help you can provide would be much appreciated!

    Welcome to one and all above.....I am no expert either by any means...I just joined probably about 3 weeks ago and IT IS the best thing EVER!! It helps you be more accountable, seeing it in black & white hellps!!! Hearing all the others stories and motivation is unbeatable....I had actually started a new healthy life style about 2 months before joining the website and was doing ok on my own but this has brought a new level of motivation for me anyway.....hope you all get the same!!!:smile:
