Doing It The Hard Way

I recently came across this site and decided to try it. Maybe the extra support and encouragement will help me to continue on this journey. Losing weight the healthy way--diet and exercise--is definately NOT for sissys. But I don't believe there is a true "Quick and easy fix" for losing weight and gaining your health.

    Welcome and good luck to you!!

    It may not be quick/easy, but it is sooooooo worth it! Remember, Rome wasn't built in a day -- and neither will your ideal body...but it will be a true wonder and joy to see when it is -- and you'll find maintaining a lot easier than doing it all over again.
