    Welcome and would you like to be a friend? I started just 5 days ago and have lost 1 lb. Even that little bit is such a reward. This site is very helpful and I wish you the best in your efforts.

    Hi

    Welcome, I feel like I have been on here for weeks, but I have actually only been on here for 5 days, I first came on here in April and decided to try and do it without friends, just fill in the food tracker, but I got bored and stopped coming on here. This time, I have made a few friends and their help this week has been great.

    5lb down and I guess its working

    If you need a friend just add me

    Good luck

    Hi! I'm new here too! and I'm loving it! I would love friends to enourage me along the way and I will encourage right back twofold. We CAN do this! Btw just had my first veggie burger....not too bad. I put a real garden tomato and mustard on ezekiel toast. It must have smelled good the dog was trying to wrestle me for it. HAHA I guess my new motto is life without cheese. Most people are addicted to sweets.....mine downfall is cheese. hehe I also am beginning to think I'm a freak because I've never been able to stick to a plan longer than 24 hours. I know...I know....but this website has healed me! love it and love the community.
