At Bally's yesterday someone told me about this website so I thought if would be worth a try, as a "serial dieter" who generally dislikes excercise and has sizes 6-16 in the closet. (Currently fitting into the 12-14's, desperately wanting to get back to 8-10's).

    Hi, and welcome to THE best site on the web!
    I'm originally from MA too, but have been living in NH for the past 30 so years.
    Between the easy to use food counter (which by the way is SUCH an eye opener!) and all the wonderfully supportive members, you WILL be able to lose the weight that you want to, AND, it'll "almost" be easy doing it!
    I recommend logging ALL your foods BEFORE you have them, rather than later, as it tends to lead to better food choices. (not to mention you'll know if you've got enough numbers left to have a night time snack, like I ALWAYS try to do!) Some people also like to weigh and measure some things, such as meats, rather than just estimating and possibly being WAY off!
    Also, drink lots of water, that seems to help alot too. :drinker:
