Hi every one I just started this site 2 days ago and very excited to be here I have been working out since Febuary 2011 and was at 190 and for the past 9 mouth i have only lost 5 pounds. I have been working out at the gym lifting weights 3 days a week and about a month ago i started to walk a mile every day before work. last week i found out at the gym i had been starving my self and not eating enouph calories so i have changed my whole life now and stated last week to eat 5 small meal a day and with in a week i have lost 4 pounds so i joined this site to help and for the encourgement i look forward to helping others out to and talking every one else may God bless each and every one. and be sure your eating enoph calories so you don't starve your body. and happy working out.

    hi jen. well you have come to the right site, when I started I was 17st 5lbs and I started with slimfast it works but then after a month it slowed down and looked at web sites found this and since then with going to the gym and controling what I eat and dont eat I got to my goal of 13st as my trainer said but my doctor said it should be 12 st 10lbs so I got down to 12st 10lbs and feel so much better and thats because of changing what I eat and a great bunch of friends on here who motivate and give you advise all of which helps and if I had not been here I think it would have taken longer to get to my goal so welcome to the club and remember if you want to know any think just ask and one of us will or might know so good luck and if you need a friend then just add me
