I have puttered around with loosing weight but always gave up easily. Now, I am almost 40 and after 30 years of being fat I am ready for a change.

I have used this website off and on for about 2 years, but never really came into the forums, and would stop coming by at all for sometimes months at a time.

Not any more! I CAN do this and I will use any and every tool available, including this website and all it has to offer.

I can't wait!

    I am in Oxford.

    My kids are getting into their teens now and I have never been able to be active with them. In fact, my lifestyle is starting to affect them. I want to make sure they get active and healthy NOW, before they waste 30 years and can only WISH they had done it when they were young.

    Awesome! That dedication will be a big component in making it happen. I've only been using this website, and the phone app, since January. It's been a bit bumpy at times, but I've lost 13 pounds so far and feel so much more confident about being able to reach my goals. You've got our support and encouragement too. Go get 'em! - sending some love from Arkansas :)
