    Welcome, and your story of listening to you and getting out of an abusive relationship is really inspiring; hopefully it will help someone else that you share it with! There's lots of good support on here (and also some bad - but such is the internet), so please feel free to add me. Heck, I'm excited when I lose even 0.1 pounds :)

    Your punchline and delivery are way off. No offense.

    Might I suggest.

    So, a fat girl walks into a bar. Which kind of hurts. She should have ducked.

    Or just, "Ouch."

    Nice to meet you Rebecca. I too just started on my weight loss journey. It is super important to stay motivated and be surrounded by people who are going thru the same things as you are.:smile:

    This might sound cliche, but "you go girl"!! I'll friend you just to watch the progress. I'm a single father of 3 and I'm training for a half-ironman race in California in July - and I'm new to the site, but I love it. The message I have for you is this: you can do it. We're on different levels of fitness and health, but that doesn't change the fact that we're both trying to be the best "self" we can for ourselves and for those we love. I am trying to send you a link to a great article that I think might give you encouragement. I found it very intriguing. If the link won't attach, the title is 'Which Traits Predict Success? (The Importance of Grit) by Jonah Lehrer. It's worth the 5 minutes it takes to read it. What I think you'll take away from it is that we all have the potential to train ourselves into good, if not great, habits and be the best at what we set our minds to. Best of luck to you, I look forward to updates and watching you reach your goals!!
