    thanks for the responses, this place does seem very friendly. my problem is I lack motivation but then again i guess that's the same for everyone. i am determined to make this change as i have been in denial about how my weight has affected things in my life , i will send u both friend requests and thanks.

    hey, thanks i have added you, I am new to trying to lose weight I have always put it off as i didnt believe that i would be able to do it, but that changed when last year i finally managed to quit smoking using my will power only...this proved to me that I could acheive anything i really wanted and losing weight is definately something I want, I have a lot to lose but am taking it one day at a time..the new me is waiting i can feel it.
