in Introduce Yourself
Hello everyone! I am so happy that I found this site on line. I just joined moments ago. I am 5'1 and weigh about 250 pounds and have decided that enough is enough! I really need alot of support. Please help me! Be my friend, and I promise to be yours too. According to the site, I should lose 10 pounds by april 9th so, since I have so much weight to lose, I'll just focus on 10 pounds at a time.

Thanks for reading! And, hopefully, I will hear from you soon.

    Hi Sabrina, So far I have lost 8 pounds. Would like to lose 20 more. I was addicted to soda too (dietdew). I ran out on Friday and decided it is time to quit cold turkey. The headaches are getting less intense and I can honestly say I think this is for good. Now I drink even more water because I just seem so thirsty. I used to drink 4-5 cans a day, then I limited it to 2 cans for about a month. It is hard, but I think you can do it. Good luck.

    Congrat's on the good day. Having a positive attitude will surely help you hit your goals. Sometimes much faster than you think. Just hang in there like you said, "one day at a time".
