    I'm relatively new to this as well... been doing good staying on track with my calories... but have seen no results yet on the scale :( but have noticed the extra energy I have which is nice, hoping the inches will soon vanish too!

    Feel free to add me!

    Hey, good news, I found it. I wondered where all this self esteem came from.

    I tell you what. This self esteem is pretty valuable, so I am not going to give it all back at once...Actually I am going to help you earn interest on it and you will have more than you started with. Here is the deal.....

    Every day you eat right and exercise, I will give you a little back. As you reach your mini goals of weight, fitness, and well being, I will give you a bigger chunk back. You will see the interest it earns with me will give you more and more for each goal.....

    However, the final price will be, when you have all that self esteem, you are probably going to have to help others with theirs....

    I hope that isn't too expensive for you. Because I am sure you can do it. :)

    Wow. This just restored my faith in humanity a little :)


    I am new on here, Seeing all this support is SO great! You guys are all so awesome! First time posting, been reading for a couple weeks though, trying to get the hang of things.

    Hey, Debs. Yes, I hate looking in the mirror too. But I feel good about what I am doing, here on this site, in my diet (just recently became a vegan), and my commitment to weightlifting and interval training. It's knowing you have to start somewhere and taking the initiative. I'll add you.

    Hello! Welcome to MFP. I just joined this month and I am thrilled with how it is working for me. I can tell a difference already. I have more energy and the jeans are already a little more loose! Please add me as a friend and we can work together to reach our goals!
