    Congratulations on your choice to better your life!

    Eat well, and track your calories, weigh yourself weekly (although I admit--I weigh daily! :embarassed: ) and measure, measure, MEASURE your body parts!

    If you like to read inspiring blogs, take a look at mine :wink: located here at MFP (the address is in my signature).

    Friend me, if you like. :smile: I am always here to listen and support! :flowerforyou:

    If you have tried a kazziliion diets, why not try something new this time?

    Make this a forever lifestyle change. Get rid of the fast food, add veggies and fruits, start loving new foods like hummus and greek yogurt!!

    I have been at this since June 08 and the reason it is still workng is I eat the same everyday. Somedays I eat more that my "lost weight" calories but that still doesnt include a bucket of chicken and mashed taters with a stick of butter!

    Add daily exercise. Park in the back of the parking lot. The time it takes to wait for the good spot, you could have added 1/10 of a mile to your daily log!!

    You can do this!!:flowerforyou:

    Thanks for the ideas. I lost the 6 lbs in the first couple of days, water I know, but on the 3rd day when I didn't lose I just told myself that was the time to stop weighing and give it a week. That has always been a big downfall of mine and as a female water weight is crazy. Everyone has been really great, I got all warm and fuzzy at the welcomes. Thanks!!

    I'm quick to admit that because of the water weight factor I as a guy have it a bit easier because my weight doesnt fluctuate as much. But realistically if you make a life style change that includes regular exercise and whole foods it really doesn't matter :smile:
