Hello

I'm Lana, i'm 27 and I have been on here a couple of days now and absolutely love this site. I have found that scanning and entering everything i eat has made me realise how much i was stuffing in my stomach before!

I have about 60lb to lose. I am looking for some friends for mutual support along the way. I'm already thinking about christmas and how hard that is gonna be :)

xx

    Lana, welcome aboard. This is the place to make that lifestyle change. Feel free to add me.
  • Yay, welcome.. I love this program.. I was the same way I must have been eating 3000 cals a day LOL.

    christmas will be easy.... you will be a pro by then. I don't skimp on holidays but I remain smart about it..

    Hello, Lana. My name is Christina and I'm right in the boat with you. I have about 45 lbs to lose. I see how what I eat in a day and its pathetic! Who knew a cheese cake from the Cheesecake Factory was over 1100 calories! And here I am eating them as a midnight snack a few times a week! Geese! The progress has been slow going for me. I'm on again, off again. I'm heading into my 35th birthday and I want to feel good about myself and love the way I look! I want to be able to wear the clothes that I have in my closet without crying and having a panic attack everytime I see myself in the mirror! Unfortunately I do not have a lot of support in this area...everyone in my immediately circle of family and friends are all much smalling than I! They can eat eat eat and never gain weight! So if you are looking for a friend here you have found one! Much success to you!

    i think we can all say that the holidays are the hardest part but with proper proportions it's not all that bad
