Hi from not-so-warm Florida!

Hi, a friend told me about this site a few months ago. I finally took the plunge, it is VERY easy to use.

I am at my heaviest ever and afraid to get heavier! My problem always has been keeping the weight off. I hope this process will help me to lose and keep it off.

I was reading a post from someone who said that it wasn't a good idea to not eat all the calories allotted. I reviewed the help and didn't find anything about that. If you have input, let me know.

I am in the Tampa Bay area. Won't be going to the beach until April, it's too coooollllddd... This morning at 6:30 it was 37 degrees. Really, it is a DIFFERENT kind of cold.. Yeah, right. :ohwell:

I'm from the Tampa area too but I'm going back to Tallahassee for school tomorrow. If it's this cold here I can't imagine how cold it will be there. I like it though. I'd rather it be like this than be crazy hot.

Hello to everyone not so warm. I feel your pain - It is not supposed to get above zero at all this week here in northern Minnesota. I am trying to lose 30 lbs. before July - I wish everyone luck!
Stay warm everyone!

I kept looking at all of the tourists and wondering if they expected this. Good luck on your journey!!! :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:

I agree, we are definetly not used to this cold weather but I have to admit it is nice and better than being hot and humid :bigsmile:

I am in New Orleans, Louisiana and it is freezing. The weather is so crazy here. Next week we may be able to wear shorts. The meteorologist(sp?) said we may have snow this week. I could never live up North. My poor husband works in the Oilfield and I feel so bad for him when it is cold, he hates it.

I am originally from Tallahassee, Florida!!! All my family lives there. (aunts, uncles, cousins)
