Hello all!

I'm just gonna jump right in here and say howdy. I've been checking out the site for a few days now and really love it. I've been doing WW online and I see I can get the tools I really want here for... FREE. And it's a little easier to navigate, too.

So, somehow the switch just flipped for me about 3 weeks ago. And now I'm down about 11 lbs. Two weeks ago I started working with a personal trainer a couple days a week.. he's a perfect match for easing into a good, solid routine. I feel so much better!

I have struggled with a serious eating addiction for the better part of 10 years and learned the right tools, read the right books... I was just waiting until it all clicked and I was ready. And now I am.

Looking forward to getting to know you all!

Best,
Marci

    Hey, thanks everyone! I'm still noodling my way around here, but I really like the looks of the place.

    Any good "must do" spots to visit here?

    Thanks!
