    welcome to both of you. I am so tired of being the chunky monkey! I want to be a skinny minnie and feel proud to see myself in the mirror everyday. I hate that I am missing out on life because of my weight. I honestly want to be successful this time so I am hoping to make some friends on here so we can encourage one another.

    Why am I here? To better myself for the sake of my family. Meaning, I want to be able to run around and keep up with my kids. I want to live a long and happy life with my husband by my side. I am here for me!

    Welcome!

    My reason of why is because it gives me more energy to go out and do stuff. I love the outdoors and really enjoy doing fun activities!

    Hi David, I am here because I'm young and want to live a healthier life and because I sit on my butt all day so there goes that!! Good job, and you're on the right track

    I am here because I have noticed small things about my health and body that I believe are contibuted to gaining weight and being so heavy. I want to be healthy and like many others want to be able to keep up with my kid and I just want to be friggen skinny and feel good!

    Good luck David! You can do it! And good luck to anyone starting out on this journey!

    I'm here because I don't feel comfortable in my body anymore, and that is a really horrible feeling. I'm sick of hiding away under layers of clothing, and then comforting eating to make myself feel better, which only leads to me being bigger and bigger and unhappier, not to mention having chronic indigestion everyday! I have a huge bottle of Gaviscon constantly to hand, and that's just not right! So the bad cycle has to stop, and a new cycle has to start (which might actually include some cycling, you never know...).
