HELLO.... My name is Tammy and I'm 38. I lost 60 pounds and kept it off for 6 years but I had to stop working out because of a new job and then my eating habits, which I swore would never change, slipped right back to crap. I just started the site this morning. This seems like a really good idea. I've tried the whole writing down my food intake in a journal but it just never helped. This is definitely more real. Your progress, or lack of, is right in your face. I wish I had found this sooner.

Hello to all the other new people, and good luck everyone!!

    Welcome! This is so much easier than a food journal, and you have instant support and encouragement! You have done this once, and can do it again. I work full time and had to learn to findout what was in the food I ate every day. What an eye opener! That banana loaf, that I thought was a 'better choice,' I realized I may as well have that piece of cake and at least enjoy it!!! Now, I do...but it is once in a while, not an every day snack! :noway:

    Anyway, the encouragement, awareness and great tools on this site will wow you! Also, unlike other sites...this offers great tools for fitness. I am 40 days in and have lost 10 lbs, but I got a great tip from someone who hit their gaol last week. Jillian Michael's 30 day shred is a great kick start. 20 minutes a day for 30 days and you should expect to see 10 lbs drop. I just bought the DVD and if you want, we can go through it together and see how it goes!

    Thanks for the tip... I'm going to pick up the dvd tomorrow!! I've tried joining a gym... and for a lot of people they work, but for some reason I can't get in the car to go. So I might as well just light the money on fire.
