Hello everyone!

I'm a newbie to MFP, but not to sites like it - I've been on sparkpeople for a while, but most of my friends already have pal loaded up - so I figured I'd branch out with this new swing here.

I weigh 308 lbs currently - i've lost 16 lbs since March 22nd, but it was mostly from sick stuff lol.

I am a writer, artist, mom, and wife.

Look forward to meeting everyone!

    Welcome! I am pretty new also! I have about 110lbs to lose and am motivated to do it before our cruise in Nov.! I do not want to stay this big forever. I have tried so many diets and I REALLY don't want to have surgery so I am hoping my 1 lb loss last week is a sign this will work!

    Good luck everyone! I know we can do this thing! 1 day at a time and 1 lb at a time!

    Yay! New people! Can you tell I am having a good morning? Ok I am dialing it back a notch. Welcome ladies I friended you both. This group gets a little quiet some days but I encourage you to come in here and vent your struggles and share your victories because it is a whole different beast to have 100lbs to lose vs. some of the others on here that only have 10-30lbs to lose. We need each other! : )

    Aloha Everybody! .. Been on MFP for just over a week.. Been doing this journey by myself since feb 22, 2011. It's nice having support now. As of this morning I'm at -80lbs ... I'm striving for that 100 lb weight loss, and then have more to go. But one goal at a time!
