I just happened to run into this site and decided to join. It's always easier to fight your weight with some support from people in same spot.
One of the reasons why I joined is the fact that here I can be who I am and be honest. We have this kind of site in my country too (yip, I'm from Northern Europe, so English isn't my first language, sorry in advance ;) ) but few people found me from there and I really didn't appreciate their stalking. Rather stay anonymous even for a bit :)

Anyway, I had huge stress this spring because of college (graduated last month) and ended up adding up some pounds. Now I feel like I need to get rid of them and get more healthy since I'm only 26 and still have long life ahead of me. I do have couple friends here that I can go to walks with and that's what I've been doing lately. I also ride horses once or twice a week. Now I just need to move more and eat more healthily. It's though, especially because my vacation is starting soon, but then I'll have more time to cook while at home :)

So I just wanted to say hi and introduce myself. I'll try to add some kind of picture when I'm not at work (yes, bad me :embarassed: )!

    Thanks :) This site seems very welcoming and fun, even when it's about weight loss (among other things of course :))!
