My sister (laurenk182004) has been raving about how nice everybody is on this website, so I thought I would give it a try. I need to lose about 125 pounds. I've been seriously considering weight loss surgery for quite some time. I'd like to do this on my own, but I am so overwhelmed by how much weight I need to lose. I'm hoping that a supportive community like this one will help motivate me and keep me on track. I look forward to getting to know everybody! :flowerforyou:

    Welcome and best of luck to you! Just be true to yourself and to logging in your foods and you will succeed!!! Try logging your foods before eating at first until you get used to eating less!

    Welcome:flowerforyou: This is in my opinion a better way to lose the unwanted pounds. Eat healthier foods in moderation, and not fast like the operation would have you do. You will have wonderful support from every one on here. We will help you through the good days and the bad the best we can. This really works, I don't think you will be disappointed at all.:happy: Here's to a new and healthy life style:drinker: Green tea in the mugs:laugh:
