in Introduce Yourself
My name is Jennifer. I'm trying to get healthier and maybe lose some weight in the process. I'm hoping to find support from this community and answers to questions that I'm sure I'll have.

    Hi
    Im a newbie also - just signed up today. Hoping to lose 20-30 lbs. Seems like a great site. I think by tracking what you eat everyday will be helpful to keep you on the right track. I'm going to give it a try. Good luck to you.

    Hello,
    I am new to this site as well, but not to the weight loss world. I have found this site to be helpful and exciting for me. It makes me accountable and because I am some what a perfectionist, I find that by ending the days under my calories is kinda of like a game for me. Welcome, and I hope you enjoy it as much as I have over the last few days . :happy:
