I've packed on the weight over the past 15 years and have realized I am larger then ever. I need the support to stay motivated, I need to loose alot to reach my goal weight, just hope I have the patience for it. I have a super sweet tooth so I am thinking of banishing all sweets for a while until I can learn some self control.

    I have a major sweet tooth also. i had to ban it from the house too. I won't drive 30 minutes to get something sweet. When I do really need something sweet or I will break the eating right cycle I usually eat No sugar added fudgecicles. That does it for me. There is alot of support here. Add me to your friends list if you want. We all need any support we can get. Its easier when you have people with the same goal. Good Luck and Welcome!

    Hi everyone
    Started yesterday, bit nervous about going on message board haven't done anything like this before but I really need motivation, I have a lot of weight to lose so any help will be gratefully received. I can lose weight but I always put it straight back on again.Thank you for looking.
