My new journey!

Hi everyone,
I took on a weight loss challenge at work in hopes of finding my inner motivation again to be healthy. I'm at my heaviest weight ever, and I'm not happy about that. Need the encouragement! I'm ready to give it another try!

    Start small & don't get discouraged when you mess up. You just start again the next day or with the next meal.

    Oh, also eat off a appetizer plate. That helps me with portions

    Log your meals and take it one day at a time

    Greetings! Carolsatcher, we have something in common. I, too, am the heaviest I have ever been. I started watching what and how much I eat about a month ago. I decided to use this website because I've used one similar years ago and loved the convenience of it. So, here I am, like you, beginning this new weight loss journey once again. As I am in my early fifties, I am more and more conscientious of how what we eat and how much exercise we get makes a difference in our total body health and overall peace of mind. It is comforting to have a community support system as I have already found the comments most encouraging. I am praying this challenge will be a fun and successful adventure for all of us.

    Good luck to you carolsatcher, you can do it. I am also beginning my weight loss journey and know I can do it and so can you! I am 11 days in and find it so helpful to keep track of what I'm eating and weighing and measuring everything that goes in my mouth. Show those people at work how awesome you are and win that challenge!
