Nervous 1st time joiner

Hello all! Today is my first day, and I am nervous! I am a 32 yr old that has been overweight since the birth of my first child when I was 18 yrs old. Before that I could eat and drink anything I wanted without gaining an ounce. I still have the eating habits like I was a teenager (when weight was not a problem), and still addicted to Mountain Dew. I am tired of ripping the tags off of my clothes because the 3 and 4X's are scary. I am finally ready to make the changes I need! Any support would be appreciated.

em1974,
Welcome. As the others have said, this is a great site. We are all here for support, so keep us posted. Remember, drink plenty of water. I have been trying to drink a big glass (12oz) everytime I feel hungry. Then I wait 5 minutes and most of the time the hunger pangs go away without even eating.
Have a great day!
