I started on the website yesterday, and am really excited at what this site offers.

I have an extreme amount of weight to lose, and I just needed someplace to help
me track and stay on track.

I am doing a program under a hospital's supervision, but I will be sharing my success
and failures here.

I have not exercised in months, but did last night and yoga to boot!

Every journey begins with the first step, I have made mine, I just hope I can make it to the end.

    I log on every day cause it is a really easy way to keep track of what I am eating and my amounts. I have only lost 2 1/2 pounds in 2 weeks and it is a little discouraging but I am going to try doing things a little different. Sooner or later I will find what's right for me. The advice on here and the food and exercise trackers are helping me alot!

    You'll love it here!!! People are so supportive...and everyone has different amount of weight they want to lose (some people here even want to gain weight)

    There are others who have a lot of weight to lose and if you look at the 'tickers' of some people, they are some here who have lost a lot of weight.

    Good luck :flowerforyou:
