in Introduce Yourself
Hi everyone,

I have been here a week and due to the time of year that I am embarking on this journey, I literally have no support! I have come to the conclusion that it's never a good time to start so "Why not now"? Everyone around me is telling me it won't work and reminding me that Starbucks has it's famous EggNog Lattes out right now.

I would really love to connect with like-minded people so that I can stay inspired by seeing your results! It also helps me so much with accountability and I need that!

I get so inspired seeing everyone else's journey and I really can't wait to connect with everyone!

Thank you,
Jami

    Well if it's egg nog latte time that means it's also time for the cranberry bliss bar at Starbucks!
    I've been doing this for about two months now and I don't have any "friends" through this site, but I'm thinking I need to start building support in that area because I'm afraid that somewhere along the line I'll lose my motivation.
    My biggest problem is that I'm a foodie and I don't want to miss out of delicious stuff. Plus, I've started running and I don't care for it. I need to make sure I stay on track.
    Best of luck to you Jami! Right there with you.

    I'm also quite new to this site, and could use some extra support. I've lost weight before and gained it all back again, trying to get it off and keep it off this time. The only friend I got on here is the hubby . lol

    I have been here religiously since 9/21/12. I have lost 16lbs but still have a very long way to go.

    I log on everyday and my food diary is open for my friends to see. I think keeping your diary open can help others with ideas, recipes and just so they can see what you are eating to lose weight.

    Feel free to add me :flowerforyou:
