Hello All,

My name is Carolyn. I found this web site from a fellow blogger. I love how easy it is to navigate. I am here because I need lots of motivation for staying fit. I tend to get fit and find a reason to slack off for months. Then I am back at it and wondering why I make myself suffer. I hope to form many friendships to help each other on this fitness journey.

Carolyn

    Welcome, this is my second week and I'm already starting to see a change. I still eat what I want, I'm just a little bit more concious on my portion size.

    Hi, I'm also (pretty) new! And ditto here, my portion sizes were a big problem (as was my tendancy to graze mindlessly!).
    Portion control has helped greatly thus far!

    Hi there, I'm Julie. My daughter recommended this site to me & I really love it! What I didn't love was discovering how many calories I actually consumed over the course of today. However, knowledge is power, right? I am a 57-year-old with 30 extra pounds to lose. They just kind of crept up on me over the last few years and are really refusing to budge. Someone sent me a message the other day that said, "The easiest thing in the world to do is quit." (I don't think they were talking about smoking) I am not about to give up. I have a family reunion in Texas in June & would like to lose 10 lbs. & feel more energetic by then. It's great to have this tool & to connect with others in the same situation. Thanks for being there & best wishes to you all.
