I'm new to the site, but what I have found I love. I am reading all the success stories, the message boardsand the "old timers" encouraging us newbies, it is just so inspirational. I feel like I've found a home, and a way to finally loose this weight once and for all. Thanks for everything.....and keep those stories coming!

    I feel the same way. You did find a home, everyone is so positive when your down people here pick you. It is better then family because everyone understands where you are coming from.
    Welcome.

    I've been here for a month and find this site to be as addictive, if not more, than facebook. I find myself spending more time here than there now! ;)

    Myfitnesspal got it right: healthy amount of food with careful monitoring, positive reinforcement of exercising, and a wonderful way to connect with other people going through the same thing as you. People are always here to encourage each other, no matter what stage you're at. :smile:

    I agree 100% about this site being addictive and spending more time here then Facebook. Although, this site is helping me lose weight and meet friends.

    I agree with the "like" button. There are many times I'd like to "like" a post but not make a comment! I've even found myself looking for the "like" button! :)
