    I am also here because of the today show. I love that this is a free site and am looking forward to building a group of supportive friends. Now the challenge for me is going to be to count calories and stay on track so any helpful ideas I can get will be greatly appreciated. I believe that silly saying from the 70's is appropriate now "Today is the first day of your entire life". Let's do it together!

    Hi everyone, I'm Denise from Calif...I too joined after watching the Today Show. I have about 25 to lose before I turn 50 in December. I LOVE to cook and I love my couple of glasses of wine in the evenings when I let the goats out to play. I know I can lose the weight, I've done it before but those of you who are in your later 40's probably have found like myself that it just doesn't come off as easily as it use to. Sigh! I was just recently in a car accident and before that I tore my hamstring trying to water-ski on the 4th. Before the hamstring injury I was hiking five miles a day and feeling GREAT. Now, I'm back to... I'll sit and watch a Netflix and have a glass or two of wine. Another sigh! The hamstring is on the mend, not totally back to the way it was and my neck is still stiff. Still, that isn't a reason to sit...I know I need to move, move, move, we all need to move, move, move. I'm hoping all of you can keep me moving and motivated. Good luck to us all! =)

    I joined today after seeing the segment on The Today Show with Hoda & Kathie Lee. What an inspiration and I had no idea that this website existed! I am so grateful because I need something like this to help me stay focused on motivated! I actually had a mini gastric bypass back in the spring of 2001 and lost 147 lbs but sadly have gained about 50 of them back. I now realize that having the surgery was just a tool and that I need to be in control of what I'm eating and that I need to get off this couch/recliner and MOVE!

    There is something to be said for checking in and writing everything down. i like having the exercise log-in so that I can see how much my workouts are helping in the calorie in vs. calorie out!!!!!!

    Hi, my name is Sandy and I also joined after I saw the Today Show. I have lost 64 lbs. but I have been stuck for about a month now with no weight loss. I have about 40 more pounds to lose to get to my goal weight. I love to cook and that is my problem. I have 2 children, 3 step children and 6 grandchildren. I am 45 years old and I am so tired of not feeling like doing anything with my family. Losing the 64 lbs. has helped tremendously but I don't want to stop here and not complete my goal.

    I'm here because of the Today Show also...Wonder how many of us are joining today because of that segment? I have lost 15 lbs this year, but haven't lost anything in the last month. Have gotten lax with all the hot weather. I don't do well in the summer. Think that is opposite of most people. When its hot, I don't want to do much. Hoping I can get motivated again.

    So nice to find a free site. Thank you for this opportunity. Good luck to everyone. Janiebird
