    Really good to see people joining and more importantly participating. This site is great. I looked around and could not find a group that fitted my need or that was active enough but it was really easy to just go start this group. It makes me happy that you have joined and I hope you all make use of it and that we all reach our goals.

    Such great progress!!! I started at 330 a week ago - I am hoping for 10 lbs a month but secretly I really want 12 too!! I am hoping the exercise will create the extra 500 calorie deficit needed to lose that 3rd lb a week. Wishing you great positivity in your journey!
