Hello! Well its my first time here, and I thought I can just do it all by myself. I realized that if you're the only one whose dieting in your houshold, and all your friends are thin and they just eat anything they want... its hard to get motivations. I was never overwieght growing up, not until I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism about 6-7 years ago. I gained about 50 pounds in 2 years and never got it off. I once or twiced lost about 20 pounds ( and I really worked hard!) but that's about it. Anyways, I am looking for friends who can motivate and encourage me, as I would do the same for them! Thanks and have a nice day!

    I'm am also new just started 2 days ago. It is good to have people to help motivate you. We can all help each other.
    You can do it.
  • Hi, brand new at this as well....just starting moments ago. I saw it on the Joy Fit Club new member's "how I lost the weight" bio.

    So far what does everyone think...useful?
