    Welcome. Remember, this is not a diet. It's a lifestyle change. Drink lots of water. Give up processed food and soda. Get moving.

    you can friend request me. :) My advice to you would be that the 2 first weeks are the hardest! you dont realize how much crap you are putting in your body till you start looking at the back of the package. good luck! what kind of spanish are you? im mexican from tx but i live in maryland now :(
