in Introduce Yourself
I have just joined today and wanted to say hello! I'm feeling more motivated than I ever have to get healthy and lose this embarrassing weight!:happy: I just wanted to get a foot in the door and maybe connect with some people in the same boat. I've never been this huge in my entire life and have over 100 pounds to lose. SO - hello to you all! I'm ready to get this started! :smile:

    Welcome! I am new to this program and liking it. I made it through WEEK 1 and lost 1.5lbs. I decided to reset my goal to a 5lb loss, and just start this program by trying to lose 5lbs at a time. The larger number was kind of overwhelming to me. The thing with this program, you will be able to set the bar for yourself and make it happen. I wish you every success!

    welcome, welcome! do this slowly, one day at a time. 5-10# increments will seem a lot less overwhelming!

    Hello! Today is my day one also! I love MFP. Used it in the past, but got off track and distracted easily. More determined this time.

    I sent you a friend request. We can keep each other encouraged. :-)
