Hi All

nurseseabreeze75

Hello everypne, new to the site and wanted to do a quick introduction........my name is Brandy and I live in a small town in WV, I have a wonderful husband and 3 wonderful children. I joined this site because my husband and I really need to lose some weight for our health. I can't do it without support and thought this would be a great place to start.

Several things my fellow site members have taught me:
- Eat all your calories allotted--or get pretty close to the amount allotted.
- Drink lots of water to cleanse the system.
- Walking is a good and steady exercise and most of us can do it.
- Eat lots of fiber (fruits and veggies).
- If you really want a high-fat food, eat one bite of it. Pause, relish, enjoy, savor that bite.
If you totally deprive yourself, in a weak moment, you may eat the whole thing.

Before long, you will be sharing your helpful hints. Welcome. BJB

You've come to the right place! I've been here almost a month and this is the longest I've ever stuck with an excercise kick.... And there is a reason for that. Being here has made me realize it's a lifestyle change and the more I see my 'friends' posting their success the more I'm motivated to create my own. Welcome to the site and may your weightloss journey be fabulous!
