Hello everybody!

So many people starting on Sunday! Weekend is a good time to sit back and look back and try to change or improve your health/weight :)

In my case, I'm not very good with goals; I've never set any goals for my life therefore I don't get so motivated so often. I'm praying Heaven for some self consciousness and energy to loss some weight (I need to drop 10kg = 20kg to stay on my ideal weight)

Hope to make so friends and find support here! :)

Greetings from Argentina,
Leti

    Oh man, is it even possible to lose weight in Argentina? If I were back there i'd be eating all the Asado, Empanadas, Dulce de Leche, Facturas, Pepas and Alfajores I could eat :)

    Hi Madrock! Actually that pic is my goal, I had 10 kg less than now :) (and few year less as well! )

    Actually my sedentary lifestyle is my main problem: sitting behind a computer 24/7 = half for work and half for fun = need to change my sedentary ways asap!

    Oh I know, it's probably a good thing that I'm not living there now. Heard the exchange rate was up to 4:1 which is a shame. I'll send you a friend request :)

    This is a great place to get support and learn healthy eating habits. My wife (hootsmamma)and I have really done well and lost a small person between us. The great friends and encouragement is incredible. Welcome and good luck! If you need support friend us.

    It feels really good, I'm not hungry at all and I have read so many wonderful stories/blogs/posts throughout the day that it makes me wanna continue tomorrow!

    See u tomorrow all!
