Hello Everyone,

I am new, just started 4 days ago and I am looking for a support group. I am trying to lose 61 pounds. Motivation, Tips, advice are always welcome. Not sure how all this stuff works.

    We can do it! If we keep motivating each other and others it will make it easier for us to lose weight...Stay positive and motivated!

    I am new, too, just started Tuesday. I think from reading posts, I have finally figured this out. My calorie intake-exercise should =my goal, which is the net. We can be friends and go through this together if you would like.

    Hello! I've started walking this week here in the beautiful mountains, It's way to pretty to be inside. I don't want to end up with a disease caused by obesity, so I am serious about losing 50 lbs. I hope to make some friends here :)

    Hello, and Welcome.
    First you will have good days, great days and not so great or good days. it is ok because everyday is a chance to do better than the last day. Set up your goals. Keep it realistic. Try to make good choices and dont beat yourself up to much if you do not. Exercise is 30-35% and the food choices 65-70%. Do give up no matter what. Congrats on starting!:smile:
