in Introduce Yourself
Hey there!

I just joined and am checking out the message boards. I'm excited to continue on this weight loss journey and lifestyle improvement.

I'm a former WW so this concept of healthy eating and activity is not foreign to me. I just need something fresh to keep me going.

My 10-year reunion as well as a trip to Europe are coming up for me this summer, so I want to get in the best shape possible for them!

    Hi and welcome!

    I've tried WW before but it just didn't work for me. I know lots of people who have had great success with it though! So far the people here have been really great and supportive. :)

    Jealous about your trip to Europe!

    My wife has done WW 3 times and she loves it! Right now she is pregnant and can't join WW though and has a very specific diet because of her glucose intolerance related to the pregnancy so she can't really benefit too much from this site, BUT I showed her this site & she was like, WOW, how much did you pay for that? And I was like NOTHING and she was shocked. LoL

    WW just didn't work for me.
    This is more my style so i cancelled my online tools with ww.
    This feels more like a way of life then worrying about points.

    Thanks everyone!

    I have absolutely nothing negative to say about WW. I had some success, I even reached a 10% weight loss goal, but since they modified the program and our finances changed, I just need something different. I am a bit sad to let it go, but it's time.

    I'm SUPER excited about being here and I look forward to seeing you all daily! This site reminds me in many ways of facebook, so perhaps I will become as addicted here as I am there!

    I'm new as well!!! I've done WW and had great success - lost 25 pounds! I actually stopped meetings and maintained my weight for almost a year. Somewhere after that, things went awry. LOL! I'm back on the wagon again, though. Welcome!!! :bigsmile:

    I'm fairly new as well - and so far, it has been a huge asset to my weight loss. I think you'll love it. Good luck!

    (ps - LOVE your dog, I have a 4 yr old Boxer who is quite the character)
