Ok, this group came about from one of my posts.... It seemed that a lot of us are in the same spot (I'm in the middle of my second week) so we thought how fabulous to start a group for all of us on the "same page" so to speak.
So, for now, I am identifying us as JUNE STARTERS becuase we haven't came up with a name yet :happy:
Ok, in this post....
People in this group need to have started their new journey to weight loss and/or a fitter person in June....recommittments count...that is where I am right now.... I'm a recommitter and I started two weeks ago... So, if you fit this description, welcome! :happy:
We want to start by you posting your starting weight, current weight (ew, I know) weight goal and any mini goals that you may have. If you want to share a little about yourself that is fine too.
We want to really good a good idea of who our group members are, so be sure to reply to this post!!!

Welcome! I notice you quit smoking too. May I ask how you did it?
Me? I quit using the nicotine patch. I'm actually using the generic brand because I had bad skin reactions to the NicoDerm CQ brand (and it made my arm feel REALLY weird). Only two weeks left and I'm off the patch. woo hoo! :bigsmile:0 -

I was an on/off smoker for 6 years (10-16) and then I smoked regularly a pack a day for 8 (16-24). The patch really does help!! Once you decide to do it, you'll find its a lot easier with the aids than you think. You can do it! :flowerforyou:0 -
My name is Jessica and I just started about two weeks ago. I don't have much weight to lose, but I'd really like to get back in shape (I'm so un-fit!!) and tone up.

By the way, if you're looking at the picture I have posted and think "There's no way she needs to lose weight!", it was taken about five or six years ago when I was probably 107 pounds. :blushing:0 -
