    I've been trying for at least 7 years to lose too. I know how you feel. I just joined this site in June. Motivation has always been a problem for me, but with the encouragement I've gotten here, I think I'm really going to do it this time. I've lost 17 lbs since joining and I feel great. I don't want to stop until I reach my goal. Welcome!!! This is a great site :happy: :drinker: :happy:

    Welcome! I myself just started and have been struggling with weight my whole life....one piece of advice i can give is if you fall off the wagon always get back on.....(it's ok, you can't get penalized on this site lol )And always log EVERYTHING you eat.....those 5 and 10 calorie things add up...and sometimes when you eat things that don't have the nutrition label on it, you don't realie how much cals/carbs they really have! Best of luck to your new and improved lifestyle!

    Hi there all, I want to start off by saying Good luck to you all...I started my journey yesterday and going by my BMI ...I need to loose 80 pounds, but right now my focus is 20 pounds...I have been trying for three years have gotten trainers and did every diet imaginable, but in the end I put it all back on. This time I want to do it with out all the different things out there and watch my calories and exercise. Where i work we just got weighed tonight and we will get weighed every 30 days for the next 3 months, and we all put money in the pot and the one who looses the highest percentage will win the money....And our family all decided to change eating habbits in our house, so with support, and knowledge I hope to be a bit thinner with days, months to come....
    Good luck all
