Hi! I've just joined ~ I have always dieted by myself, not wanting others to know my business, (really because if I failed, no one would know it!) but, I think support is what I need to really accomplish this HUGE goal! Send me tips if you've discovered some! Thanks for being there! :wink:

  • Hey-
    I always did the same thing (I'm young but I've been dieting since 6th grade sadly).
    I'm new too but so far this site has really made me accountable for what I eat. Everyone is so supportive and just knowing that everyone can see my progress has really been a motivator to not mess up!!!!
    Feel free to add me as a friend.

    hi there - me too!
    I finally realized there's no reason to hide I'm on a diet if I'm overweight - it just means I'm doing something to make myself healthier. I do struggle with embarrassment though. that's why I think this site is so wonderful - everyone is looking for the same thing - non-judgmental support.
    feel free to add me!
