    1st of all you are a beautiful woman. Love that photo! I am a beach baby and cant think of a place I would rather be.

    Look around this site. You will see people who have lost 110 pounds. That was 1 pound at a time, the healthy way. :love:

    This time around I started with a new attitude. I decided I am going on a LIVEIT not a DIET. Over the past 3 months I have changed my entire thought process on food.

    There is a lot of good info from people like you and me....but they have DONE it!

    Today I got a smile out of my doctor for the 1st time in 5 years. Hopefully I will get good cholesterol (sp?) results tomorrow to go with it.

    I feel great, clothes fit better and best of all I feel good about me.

    You can have this too. 1 day at a time, small changes.

    Good luck! :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:

    Hiya
    Welcome to the site, there's a lot of encouragement here.
    I 'fell off the wagon' as it were a few months ago, just got back on it after a health shock - been a diabetic for 2 years, and it's been out of control for a year, but now it's time to face it head on.
    I'm here if you wanna chat about anything, or just need someone to listen.
    Take care, and remember, we're all in this together :happy:
