    Me too. I have tried several other things- protein shakes, Weight Watchers etc. But this is a very good palce to start. I have lost 10 lbs since joining. Joined in to do the 30 shred. Was doing well until I need knee surgery. . It is great forum. No one judges you and if you fall off the scale so to speak you can get right back on.

    Seems like even reading the topic boards for some inspiration helps.

    Hello, I am 20-25lbs over weight. I have never been this big before in my life. I am trying my hardest and I can't seem to do this. I have always been the type of person that could eat what she wants and not gain a pound. I was heavy for my wedding and then heavier for my honeymoon in Mexico a few months ago. This year I am going to a couples resort in Jamiaca and I want to finally get back into my bikini. Can anyone help. I need it bad. You can add me as friends and support me. I also need motivation because I am trying to Run a 25k this May too.:flowerforyou:
