    Welcome aboard! We are all here for the same reason. Lot's of support here to help. I have been at it 5.5 weeks now and have lost 21lbs. 76 more to go!! I have tried several diets, and always FAILED! I am now learning I do not have to diet, I have to change what I eat and how I eat it. Since doing that, I feel like I am eating all day long, and usually to full to finish out the calories I am supposed to eat for the day. My niece joined 9 weeks ago, and has lost 32lbs. She was surprised she had to buy a bigger lunch box to go on a diet! I, like you, have been heavy all of my life. I know, once I get to my goal, I will have to keep eating this way to stay there. Just remember, it's what I try to remember anyways, you didn't get this size overnight, and your not going to get to the size you want to be overnight either. You may have a bad day, put it behind you and move on to the next!! Chin up, add me *kitten* a friend if you would like to!!
