Welcome! I am new too! I joined in March and since then this site has helped me lose 13 lbs! I would love to help you! My advise is to weigh and measure everything you eat. Read food labels. Stay away from the scale....only weigh once a week! LOL (hard to do) That is little things to help you get started! Any more questions feel free to ask!0

Hi I just joined last week and I have a coworker doing it with me. I know how you feel about having support, and I am more than happy to lend my support. Add me OKemia. Lets lose this weight together.0

@ Carrie Congrats on your success already! yes once a week is hard lol.. I am trying to be more aware of what I am eating like reading food labels.. I think this site will be helping in keeping track of that and that's just what I needed..
@OKemia Thanks the support would be very helpful.. I myself have recently joined a gym and work out with a friend of mine.. It definitely helps to have someone.. I just don't want to lose that focus when we aren't together.. Also I hope to be of help to anyone that may need it also!0
