    Why wait until the 2nd? Why not now? Now is a better time than any! Start slow, like changing one habit a week. Walk for 15 minutes, move up to 20, 25, and so on. As long as you start somewhere! We are here for you!

    Welcome! I started in May with around 100 pounds to lose.

    You can do this, and there are a ton of people here who will support you the whole way.

    Best of luck to you!

    Amen! Don't delay!! If you were motivated enough to set up your account, then don't lose your momentum. And it is also great advice to start with short walks, and increase them in reasonable intervals. Best of luck on your journey!

    You can add me as a friend if you like. I will do my best to give you the support you need. I love this site. It is the only thing that has worked for me and believe me, I have tried everything! This site helps you know what you are doing and you are not deprived with pre-packaged meals that taste like gritty styrofoam! Good Luck

    waiting til the 2nd bc right now i am on some medication that is making it hard for me to keep anything in my system and it makes me very sleepy... it kinda drains the energy right out of me

    One of the keys to success is logging your food in your diary! You can start doing that now. By the time you start you'll have an idea where you can start tweaking your diary. Make sure you log everything! I saw a great quote on here that I now call my golden rule,"you bite it, you write it".

    Good luck on your journey towards changing your eating habits! You've come to the right place!
