New here.. well for a little over a week. There's so many great people here, and I feel at home!

I'm a positive kinda gal, and I'm looking for the same kinda positive vibe, so we can cheer one another along the way. I've always struggled with weight issues since I was a kid. I've been up and down, but this time really feels different. I work from home, so I check in a lot!

    I work from home too and am in the same boat albeit a POSITIVE boat. I am at the point where I just want to feel healthy and like I have energy. Hoping the scale will follow along... Been here a week or so too.

    I think this is the first time where I am not doing a fad diet and actually doing this the "right" way. Diet AND excercise (you would laugh at my feeble attempts at excercise) at the same time. I usually get on a kick and do one or the other but never have gotten it together...

    I will cheer for you like crazy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Welcome! This is a wonderful site with lots of positive support & helpful advice. After yo-yo'ing since I was about 14 years old I am just now finally feeling like this is possible for me to make these changes for good & never turn back! Sent you a friend request! Best wishes on this journey! :smile:

    Hi, I have also struggled with this for years. Weight up and down. I realize I need to get it off and keep it off this time. I started this a few months ago then stopped. I am starting again. I would love support.

    First time. Technically challenged! ;) But want/NEED a group of friends to cheer each other on! I'm loyal and more positive to others than I am to myself. Already gone through half my daily calories... and I still have dinner & the rest of the day to go! Accountability will keep me going... just knowing I have to "report in!". Would love to get a fun group to cheer for!!!

    well, i'm in. i'll cheer for all of us who have chosen to make a "ME" difference. here is some good news; i have been doing this for almost 2 weeks and figured out yesterday that you have to re-enter your weight or you never lose a smidge, and today, YAY ME, i figured out what the glass of water at the bottom of the page is for...i figure that took up at least 2 calories! xox to all...xoxmom!
