Hi everyone. I am new her just signed up yesterday. I am currently 247.4 lbs (YIKES). I started Body By Vi yesterday. 2 shakes a day and a sensible dinner. So far I feel good. I also gave up pop as of yesterday too. I used to drink 3 to 4 24 oz Diet Coke Caffeine Free bottles a day. I have previously done Weight Watchers and lost weight but always gave up.
I need to get this weight off once and for all.

Welcome! Please feel free to add me, I'm always willing to support new and all members.
That's a great sacrifice to give up so much all at once, I know you'll pull through. The first few days to weeks are difficult, but don't give up! You'll succeed with a little self and external motivation and you'll accomplish so much more than you ever dreamed!
Have a great day0 -

Hello Jen! I am new here also - 6'5", 317lbs, target 235... I am giving up sweet tea (my biggest weakness) and larger portions.
I would love to help motivate each other and see what we can accomplish! Tainted and Denise - Thanks for the positive words (even though they weren't aimed at me : ) Great Job Ejenkins - missed your post, but want to say hi to you too!

Welcome! The best advice I can give you is go get a large tervis mug with a cup and a straw (48 oz size works great), and then go get a bottle of MIO flavor that you put in the water. I find i can now drink between 15-18 glasses of water a day thanks to discovering MIO. Welcome aboard!0

Hello , this is my first day setting up , was with weight watchers lost a little , but was unable to exercise due to sever back injuries This is my problem, lack of movement. Hopefully this will help me stay focus.:blushing:0

Thank you all for the welcome. I would love to be friends with everyone. I need all the encouragement and support I can get. I do alot of stress eating. I have a ton of stress right now. My husband lost his job in July 2010 and was unemployed for a year. He finally found a job but it is in Dutch Harbor. AK. We live in Illinois. So my husband comes home every 3 months for 3 to 4 weeks depending on what we can afford at the time. All the stress of raising our 8 year old, running a house and paying bills all falls on me. So I eat out of sadness of him being gone and the stress.0
