Hi! I'm Edith. I'm 28, and have been on this website a few weeks. I haven't been doing very good...haven't lost any weight. I've been trying to exercise, but am eating crappy. On the few times I've recorded my eating, I've been astounded at how much I really eat...of course I shouldn't be. I didn't get this way eating salads. It is my goal to really work at this. Maybe I should start by making small changes...since everytime I think about dieting, I eat more and gain weight! I'd love to have friends on here of all ages, sex, weight....whatever. I'd love to be able to encourage each other and share tips!!

    I'm on day two and was very amazed to see how many calories I consume in a day!! I am also looking for friends, support, and any helpful tips. I have about 60 lbs to lose. My motivation is my 2 little boys, and the fact that I want to feel better about my self.

    Hi Edith,
    I am Emily. I am new to this site. I have struggled all my life with my weight. For the past year and a half I have been using a program similar to this sponsored by my doctors office. As of tomorrow that ends so I needed to find something to take it's place. But I was worried I wouldn't have the same accountability without having someone checking on my entries. I hope I can continue to do this on my own. I would be happy to help you and help myself at the same time. I have lost 73 pounds. Would love to lose 40 more.

    Feel free to add me as well! I'm 29 and have gained about 50lbs in the last 2 years! I need to lose it all again. I have been on here a couple of days but have been working out 5 times a week since November. I have yet to lose weight, all I do is keep gaining so I am a little discouraged so all the encouragement we can give each other would be great!!
