in Introduce Yourself
Just wondering if there are people who have just started this process, anyone who started at the end 2012( Nov,Dec) Just curious as to how your 3 months is going? as I am looking to loose 30lbs by the end of March( my husband has been away for work he left 2 weeks ago comes back March 31st) I am hoping by then, I will be happy if I even loose 20( but 30 is ideal lol )


Thanks~

    I just started on December 26th. I've lost 6 lbs now. This site is actually really helpful; I've learned a lot about changing my habits and working out effectively.

    Good luck!

    I just started this month. My goal is to lose 75 lbs. I weigh around 225 now. I am 5'8 and have a large frame. I think 150 lbs will be a good weight for me.

    I wish you all the best on your weight loss journey.

    I've started January 1. I sat down after Christmas and did a family history of health issues. It was freaking terrifying! 75% of my family have either cancer or heart problems. That was the HUGE extended family I counted. Including a very large cluster of colon cancer. So Jan 1 I started back on here seriously and started a blog that I'm going to try to keep up for a whole year. I'm down 10.4 pounds. Gone mostly vegetarian and cutting back on wheat where I can. But not starving myself or "dieting" just tracking everything and being conscious of what I eat and dumping all my dirty laundry into the blog.. :)http://greenkithera.blogspot.ca/ So good luck and happy focus to you to me and to all of us!

    I just started too...I need to lose 15 but would be happy with 10. You would think a gramma of 22 would be able to run it off with the kids...but I swear they sit more than
    I do. Heres for us and 2013!!!

    I am new here and I really need this program to work. I was involved in the program almost a year ago (where does the time go?). I am to the point where I am tired of being unhappy with myself and I am tired of being nauseated every time I look in the mirror. I need encouragement and support from everyone and anyone. I have an amazing husband to support me but, like many he has never had a weight problem.
    Please request me to be a friend any support is welcomed.
    Thank you

    I just started 2 days ago! Doing cals, good food, & trying to exercise 30min/6xs a week. :) I eat pretty healthy anyway, it's just making sure it's the right amounts of things & mostly getting up to exercise every day now.

    I have been on this website before but never really understood it and got into it that much. I dont really track on here, I do it in a notebook at home here. I have got the book fat chance, and am following the food pyramid. I have been doing it for a week now and made a halfpie attempt this week and lost 1.1kgs. Feel free to add me if you wish.

    I just started January 3rd. Weighed 281 that night. Dropped to 273 by the 7th. My next official weigh-in is tomorrow morning. I'm hoping to break into the 260's.....probably going to be realistic and be 271-274ish. Goal weight is 215ish.

    We can do this!!!

    Happy New Year Everyone, I'm having a difficult time I was ordered by the doctor to lose weight and I also want to lose weight. A friend of mine recommended this site and its only been 3 days. I find myself to be hungry and questioning why I only have a target of1200 calories a day. Any advise please share..

    I started just this week too. I haven't lost anything yet, but i know i will. Need to lose 80 lbs, but my first goal is 30lbs by March. I'm eating better since I am tracking my eating habits and i've been doing cardio at the gym. I feel better about myself already just for making myself really do it this time. I will support anyone trying to get more healthy. Feel free to add me if you'd like. Best of luck to you. I know you can do it!
