in Introduce Yourself
"They" say that we should introduce ourselves here as we are new to the site. Well...I am such a rule follower...except for when it comes to food...here I am..
I have struggled with my weight most of my life. I have done the yo-yo dieting. I lost some serious weight a while ago, but the last several years I have seen some major life changes and stress. Therefore, I have let myself go. I have noticed my weight creeping up. I am tired of being unfit, and the heaviest at the family functions. Time to get serious again. Time to wrestle with my love for food and beat it with a love for fitness and wellness. I'm ready...I'm hoping to find community as we run through this together!

    My wife told me the same thing, "first thing you need to do is write an intro post.". I just found this site a few days after my wife did. I was using weight watchers but I wasn't really following it to well. I feel that this site is a lot better and the people are really friendly. So, I say Welcome.

    Well, this site is really good. Remember to use it as a tool. The more you use it, the better you will get at it, and it will help keep you honest.
    Fitness is not like the yo-yo diets, it's a life long commitment. This is a great site for support.

    Welcome. You have picked a great place to start. Getting healthy is what it is about. I have yo yo dieted for years. This time is different because I have lost the healthy way and made lifestyle changes. That is what you want to stay focused on. Good luck.
