Hi everyone,

My name is Paula and I am from Massachusetts. I joined because a friend suggested this to me and I'm willing to give it a shot. I have at least 80 plus pounds to lose and I need motivation to do it. I can't do it alone and I don't have the motivation at home.

I hope to meet others who can help me eat/cook/plan meals on a very tight budget. At the moment I am unemployed and depression is setting in big time and all I want to do is eat.

I have a love affair with food and not the right kind. I grew up eating every vegatable out of a can so I am not a big fan of vegatables and I need help with that as well. I am a very picky eater.

Anyway, I hope to make some changes and I hope to get the support I need right here.

Paula:embarassed:

    Paula,

    It goes without saying that this will be a long battle with peaks and valleys. The best way to concur the impossible is with support. You will find it at myfitnesspal.

    I have no magic tips and tricks for my personal battle of the bulge. I watch my carbs and exercise as much as possible. I would consider going to the YMCA if you have one and requesting a sponsored membership. The Y will not turn anyone away for lack of funds. If not a Y walking around the town is free. :)

    Consider this - by joining this billboard today you are better then you were yesterday. A great start indeed.
