in Introduce Yourself
Time for me to bite the bullet instead of chips. My age and my waist keep going up and I really need to do this now. Any tips would be greatly appreciated. This journey begins in 3..2..1

    You made it here, that is a great step! Log everything you eat so you can see what is happening, be honest with yourself. Ask questions, read for answers. Add me if you want a friend for the journey.

    I know how you feel :neutral: I just started too and I don't feel like I am going to lose weight because I don't feel hungry usually. I know that I will reach my goal though! :)

    It has to be a lifestyle change. Diets don't work in the long run

    walk, walk with that beautiful dog, keep going farther as it gets easier

    take progress photos, measurements
