in Introduce Yourself
My name is Laura, I am from NS Canada. I have been looking for a group to join to get some support or just someone to talk to about my weight and battles that come along with it. I don't have anyone in my life that has to deal with these weight issues. I hate being this way (300lbs). Especially when nobody around me understands my struggles.

    Bless you! You can do this! This is the right place for you because this site is based on using good common sense when losing weight in the 1-2 lb range per week!

    I was surprised at just how 'doable' this 'program' is. Your allowed calories will go down as you slim down, but it's much easier to do it that way than to just start a 1200 calorie diet cold turkey!

    And in addition you will find some very wise folks here who are always happy to give you advice, and support! It's a great place!

    Welcome!
