Hi... I'm new on here. One of my friends has lost a lot of weight using this site, so... here I am.
I lost 100 lbs 5 years ago, but after getting remarried, I have gained 40 of it back. I am tired of having to buy new clothes and feeling bloated and crummy. Hopefully I can get into a groove and get rid of this extra baggage.

    Hi, and welcome to THE best site on the web! :smile:
    Between the easy to use food counter (which by the way is SUCH an eye opener!) and all the wonderfully supportive members, you WILL be able to lose the weight that you want to, AND, it'll "almost" be easy doing it!
    I recommend logging ALL your foods BEFORE you have them, rather than later, as it tends to lead to better food choices. (not to mention you'll know if you've got enough numbers left to have a night time snack, like I ALWAYS try to do!) Some people also like to weigh and measure some things, such as meats, rather than just estimating and possibly being WAY off!
    Also, drink LOTS of water, it REALLY DOES help! :drinker:

    Hi & Welcome!
    This site is awesome - lots of people cheering you on!
    You can do it!!!
    Good job on losing the 100! Life sometimes "happens" and the weight comes back.
    I lost 30 myself 3 years ago and found myself needing to lose it again this year!!!
    So now I'm taking it real slooow so it stays off this time. 12 lost ~~ almost halfway there!
    :wink:
