    Congratz on taking the first step here. Losing weight is always a struggle no matter who you are. Stay positive and you will succeed. If you struggle then this is the best place to be. Friends will keep you motivated and the tools here make it easy to keep track without wasting to much time. When I started my weight loss I was 50 pounds heavier then when I met my husband ( and I met him when I was over weight :( ) I have lost a total of 37 pounds now. Even though I have a lot more to go every number that goes down is worth celebrating :) . Feel free to add me to your friends list :)

    I just started to day too! Well, I signed up in January, but fizzled. Now I'm ready to committ! I'm 27 and looking to start a family, and people I meet think I already have kids because of my shape! Feel free to add me as a friend, we can motivate each other. I've been logged on here for about 30 minutes and I've already received support from other users, so I think this is GREAT! Welcome! :o)
