Hello to everyone. I'm new - started Monday - and looking forward to the support this site offers. I'm in my 50s, and so far (weight-wise, anyway) my 50s have not been good to me! But I'm finally ready to commit to serious weight loss and this looks like a great place to keep track of myself and get the support I need.

About a month ago I saw a picture of myself that really embarassed me, and that became the turning point for me. I'm ready to look and feel better, because when that happens, I know everything else will fall into place. So, in the past month I've lost over 8 pounds, and feel pretty good about the progress I've made and I know I'm finally on the right track again! And this site is a great way to keep me honest!

Good luck to everyone out there, and I would appreciate your support!
