Hi all! I just joined yesterday and already I am finding the site so helpful. Also everyone's messages to each other seem so supportive so I am looking forward to being a part of it. I just got married a little over 1 month ago to the love of my life! He is amazing. He is also a great cook and while dating I overindulged in his talent leading to a pretty hefty weight gain. In any case, we have decided that after a year of wedding planning (and inevitably stress induced eating) that we would benefit from losing weight and having a more active lifestyle. I am a huge fan of the biggest loser so we are following that plan. Any other biggest loser fans out there?? Anyway I look forward to the journey ahead:wink:

    Wooo!!! Welcome Beakstar!

    Just keep in mind something while you are here....

    #1. We are a family, and much like a family we are here for you in whatever way you need us. (also like a family we have our oddballs....take myself for instance....and Ali....and Tam....we're kinda the black sheep of this place, or the kids that always sat in the corner and got in trouble for disrupting class :wink: :laugh: )

    #2. Rule number one pretty much covers it.

    This is a great site, and we are glad you found us. Hope to see you around a lot!

    -Jeremy

    Thanks for the warm welcome!!! I think the family attitude is a great one...weird and disruptive is okay with me, after all someone has to put the FUN in dysfunctional:tongue:

    Kerrilucko, good luck with the upcoming nuptials...if you ever get stressed or wanna chat, I am game!
