:tongue: I stumbled upon this web site on accident and it was just what I was looking for. I just signed up last night but I love it already. I have been having an awful time struggling to loose wieght. My work is even doing a biggest loser contest winner gets 500 dollars and after 2 weeks I was the EXACT same weight as before! Talk about discouraging, but with finding this site I am hope to find new motivation and support. I love food and Im a sucker for a good greasy fattening meal....but I guess thats probably how we all got here lol. I am 21 and am looking for advice,help support anything you are willing to give. :bigsmile: Thanks ~Katie

    Best of luck Katie! I too love a burger and fries... ohhh... it can be trouble...
    :blushing:

    This site is great because as long as you plan for it, and account for it, you can have a small portion of anything you like! You never feel deprived, yet I really feel motivated to make good choices (and have a little treat here and there).

    You can do it!
