I joined this site a couple of months ago and have been struggling. (a) none of my friends will join so I feel kind of alone and (b) I haven't managed to lose any weight. I would appreciate any words of encouragement!!!

    Hi there...I am new to the site as well, just started on 9/14/2011.
    I really feel that this site helps to put into perspective what you are putting into your body.
    I have extreme control for what I eat but I can't get myself to excersise. And I know it take both to make it work.

    As I pack my breakfast and lunch for the next day it helps to input my meals into my phone app as I prepare.

    Years ago when I joined a gym, the personal trainer told me that I needed to eat what my body needs not for what I want.
    I didn't stick with the gym but that saying still stuck with me.

    I work full time and I have a 3 year old daughter...life is always crazy.
    But I beileve in this site and it can work if you just stick with it. :)
    Good luck with your success!

    This site is what you make it.You can sign up (that's a great start) but you have GOT to put in the work. Make some new "friends" here who share your goals and ambitions for a healthier lifestyle. You can friend me if you want to for encouragement.

    I started my weight loss journey almost 2 years ago on my own so no one could bring me down. Now that I have lost more than 90 pounds my family is starting to notice and ask "what I have been doing".

    Put yourself first in this journey and commit yourself to the fullest. Your friends may or may not join, but it doesn't matter because it is YOUR journey. All the best to you, don't give up, and live your best life!!!
