Hello to my fellow "losers"

I have been a member of myfitnesspal.com for quite some time now, however I have never bothered to post messages or read messages on the message boards. I've also never been as serious about losing the weight as I am this time around.

There have been countless times that I've gone back and deleted previous entries (i.e. weight, measurements, food, etc.) telling myself that today will be a brand new day and I'm gonna make it happen...somehow, this never seemed to work, but with support and of course will power, I see no reason why I can't make this happen.

My mom and I work out the gym everyday and having her company has really helped in this slow, but steady process. I weighed myself this morning and noticed that I lost my first two pounds! The excitement is high and I can feel the power! I know I can do this!

Wishing all of you the best in your weight loss and journey to health, looking forward to hearing from whoever happens to be out there...

    That is awesome, keep it up. We are glad to hear from you.:flowerforyou:
  • Congrats on your first two pounds, many more to you!!!

    I have tried to own up to my mistakes, and keep going. I would try to wait or change the days that go by and end up doing nothing. Now I'm a member here and things are going great for me and my husband!

    Keep up the good work!!
