    Woohoo, so excited to be part of the group! This is different for me in that in the past, I've either dieted (drastically) without much exercise, or exercised regularly without changing my (poor) diet. My biggest goal is to make eating healthy a habit, while gradually increasing my activity. I have done daily brisk walks on my lunch (even in the cold!), and have also taken advantage of Wii Boxing...taking a break now 'cause I think I over did that one lol. Ow. I really want to get a Wii Fit, and probably will in the near future. Now its just time to be patient and get healthy and lose that weight! So far so good on the eating too. I think I had enough sugar and carbs during the holidays to stay my cravings for a while. Ha! So glad to find support. :-)

    Eating healthy isn't always easy, but once you get going it is hard to stop. When they say food and exercise makes a difference it really does....in the past like you I would do crash diets....lose a few pounds and then gain it all back....Now I eat right and exercise and I feel great ! And as they say.....you don't put weight on overnight....it wont come off overnight either ! Glad you are on board...

    I know I am a little late jumping in, but I just found this site. I am desperate to loss at least 30 pounds. I had gastric bypass almost 7 years ago and the weight is starting to creep back on. My weight is 179 and I want to get to 140.

    I think this'll be a great group! Hooray for tracking through the week and now the weekend--that would make it the first time i'll have made myself track through two consecutive weekends.
  • I'd love to join too!
    Currently, at 166, but would love to get down to the 130's by summer, though I'm not really rushing myself. To get there, I'm concentrating on learning to eat healthy and actually like healthy foods, along with making exercising regularly a habit.

    Hi Cynthia and everyone else!!
    I'd love to join also! Everything seems to go so much better when you have support, motivation AND accountability!! And you all seem like a lovely group of people :)

    It's my first week, and my starting weight is...212...sigh :ohwell: I'd like to loose 30-40 and see how my body reacts to 165-170. I'm a 'curvy' girl, always have been (even when I was thinner) and I'd like to keep those curves :wink:

    Wooooo Hooooo, I'm excited and motivated!!! Have a great weekend, everyone!!

    Went to a get together yesterday evening. Ordinarily, i wouldn't make myself try to track all the grazing. I got on and tried today. Even "underguesstimating" it was scary; but it was done!
