Hello all!!

I found this site by accident and playing on the site I think this is what I need to drop the excessive weight I have to lose. I have been up and down over the years and when I got on the scale this morning I almost started to cry. I am making the commitment to start my weight loss journey and stick to it as of today. Falling "off the wagon" and then quitting has been my specialty so I am in need of all the support I can. Day 1 and 70 pounds to lose!!

    Don't cry ;-( nothing changed except you got on the scale. So, good for you, you got on the scale and took action. I didn't have a lot to lose but I found this site amazingly helpful. Even if you get nothing out of it other than logging ALL of your food/drink etc., its worth every minute. You''ll be amazed at how differently you'll look at the foods you eat.

    Good luck to you and we'll a village so get conneced.:flowerforyou:
