I am new to this... as are most people who post here, I guess. I have 100+ pounds to lose and hope to make a few friends on the same journey. I'm anxious about trying to make it that far, but I've been at it 2 weeks now... which is not all that long in the grand scheme of things- but is 2 weeks further in than I was before. :) One day at a time, right?

    One day and one step. Focus on the day, not yesterday or tomorrow. Make today great!:flowerforyou:

    Everyone says the first few weeks are the hardest, so if you're doing good now, you can definitely do this! I've only been on here for 5 days and already am so inspired by all the inspirational stories and support from others like ourselves. I am aiming at losing 115lbs. And then I might add a second goal. :) Best of luck to you, I sent a friend request, We can do this! :)
