    The most important thing to know...is that you CAN do this!!! Make sure that is your mental attitude and you'll find each step a little easier...

    Hi Trish. Not gross. It's just what it is. This is your first step. Read some of the successes on people who have lost 100+ pounds. Feel free to add me as a friend. I agree with Roseanne. Logging daily helps. Remember that this is a journey not a sprint. There are lots of roads to where you are going, so find one that YOU enjoy/can work with. Lots of great ideas on the site. Be willing to ask questions.
