Newbie

Hi everyone. I am new as of today. I am formerly a WW person, but since I can't afford that I need to do something to do get this weight off. My partner and I just got back from a wonderful vacation visiting the National Parks in Utah; Zion, Bryce, Capital Reef, etc. I lost four pounds and broke the plateau I was on of 198. pounds. I am a lift operator at a ski resort and winter is rapidly on its way up here so I need to lose this weight. My friend told me about this awhile back and now I am finally doing it.

I like the fact that I can change my food label info to be in line with what WW did. I added carbs and fiber tracking, because I truly believe in the WW program. It has worked well for me years ago when I lost 25 pounds. I could no longer fit into my clothes,and could not afford to buy more. Although it was hard for me to pay the weekly meeting fee, it was still cheaper than new clothes. As I was a receptionist for a nice environmental firm I had to look the part.

I am dealing with a lot of stress and some depression which I know hurts my weight loss, but I am hoping to overcome that now with the help of the loss from my vacation and from this program and you, my new support group!
